Dream Matchups, revisited

[TitoFan]

Can you imagine the noise Canelo would make getting hit to the body by McCallum?

I always thought Ricardo Lopez vs Mark Johnson would have been exceptional to watch.

Carbajal would have been fun with either, but the quality of work between Lopez & Johnson would have been extraordinary.

There was also Gonzales, who lost and won to Michael but not sure if the timeline and weight was right.

Johnson was really just coming into his own around '96, '97. Both Carbajal and Gonzalez were nearing the end of their careers.

Lopez could have made the jump to 108 earlier to catch those guys but he stayed at 105 a little too long.

I think Lopez beats all 3.

Lopez ie regarded as a top elite fighter but if he did this he would have been an ATG.

I was always stuck on Johnson and Tapia showdown. For me it's a super fight dearly missed. Lopez was stubborn with the weight as well as King having him bottled up with it. Weight and timeline may not have lined up with Johnson. Too Sharp is a severely overlooked talent but he had some problems and he could be sucked into exchanges. Phenomenal speed.

diamond in the rough around that time was also Yuri Arbachakov at fly. If only all these guys found a way to mix it up!

Yea Arbachakov outstanding, always loved Tapia around that 115 mark.

What would you think about Tapia vs Tim Austin? At say 118.

I don't really get into the whole mythical match ups thing, but my inner fan boy is oozing over some of these.
