    Default If 24/7 had always been around...

    What fights would have been the best for 24/7 ALL-TIME.

    Here's my list
    Ali-Foreman 'Rumble in the Jungle'...could you imagine how crazy that would have been The tenacity of the undefeated power punching Foreman vs the Louisville Lip who would have been awesome infront of any camera

    Ray Leonard-Roberto Duran...Duran would have been tailor made for 24/7, brash, irreverent, and just plain mean

    Clay-Liston I....Sonny Liston, big, powerful, mean as hell vs the loud mouth young whippersnapper who would become Ali.

    Ray Leonard-Marvin Haggler...another great match of Media Friendly and Ferocious

    Mike Tyson-Evander Holyfield, a seemingly crazy Iron Mike and the always in shape Real Deal would be sure to provide fireworks.

    Roy Jones Jr.-James Toney two great showmen who were always great when a mic was put infront of them (unless Roy tries to rap )

    Some fighters who would have been great for the 24/7 series: Jack Johnson, John L. Sullivan, Willie Pep, Ray Robinson, Hank Armstrong, Archie Moore.

    Guys who would have been bad on 24/7: Joe Louis, Rocky Marciano, Joe Frazier...they were just too bland, too businesslike

    Great thread Lyle!!

    Anything Ali would have been phenomenal. ElTerrible all of those fights you listed would have been great ones as well.
    For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.

    Would loved to have seen Ali v Frazier 1 but also old school fighters like Dempsey, Tunney, Ketchel, Jack Johnson and Sugar Ray Robinson. That would be great to watch.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Battling Siki was also a crazy boxer, cameras would have loved to follow him.

    Kid Gavilan probably would have been the Floyd Mayweather of his time given his "confidence" lol

    Siki and Gavilan would have been great. Young Griffo sounded like quite a character
