The fights that never were

[Beanz]

Not just classics. You can include personal grudges that never got sorted out in the ring Hatton / Witter and local/national fights that would have answered some ranking issues etc Barker / Macklin etc.


But first a few potential classics in which they never got as far as wrapping hands

Leonard/Pryor

Cotto/Hatton

Duran/Arguello

Morals/Marquez

Frazier/Norton

Eubank/Toney

There are so many more and many are worthy of a thread each. So you can pick a match up and discuss it or add you own. New posters or veterans, don't be afraid to suggest match ups that you think might have been one sided or not practical for other reasons, that you as a fan would have enjoyed none the less.

De la Hoya/ Tszyu

[Dark Lord Al]

Beanz v Miles.

Lewis v Bowe.

Hearns v McCallum.

Jackson v Benn.

[Memphis]

Would have been good to see Naz at Super Bantam against Acero Sanchez, Zaragoza, Antonio Cermeno, Barrera. Barrera might just have been too much at any time but the others Naz would have wiped the floor with. Titles at Super Bantam were there for the taking and might have stopped Naz creeping onto my unfulfilled potential list.

Nigel Benn v Roy Jones was a massive fight that should have happened.

Froch v Calzaghe would have been another top fight too.

[Master]

Herol Graham v Benn/Watson/Eubank

Roy Jones v Dariusz Michalczewski for undisputed light heavyweight title

Bowe v Mercer
