    Now that I think of it, Froch vs Calzahe could have been made. Froch vs DeGale too. lol... Froch bitched out more than the second Ward fight. lolol... He took Groves instead of the Olympic medalist in DeGale because he felt Groves was beatable and had less skills.

    Now that we are here mentioning Naz....

    Naz vs Money Mayweather at lightweight could have been made. For sure. Back in 2000 or so.

    Jesus fucking christ, that video is depressing, those kids should be shot let alone ever allowed to make videos on boxing. One of the kids is British yet doesn't know the difference between Benn and Eubank? Calzaghe - "he be great and all" - but he ain't got names like McClellan beat?

    I apologise to anyone on this forum I ever thought was clueless....... apart from you, and you, yeah you, and of course you. Fact. Oh and you and you and you. And you and you and you.

    Groves had already defeated DeGale when Froch fought Groves.

    Whilst that is true, it was very early on in both their careers and the ironic thing was Froch criticised Calzaghe for not facing him when he was next in line but then did the same to De Gale when he was in that position.

    Was Morales too old by the time to face JMM?

    I think we can already put Loma vs. Mikey on the list.

    I think most of the obvious great matches have already been mentioned. So I'll just throw in a few quirky or strange matches that were missed in history but theoretically could have been made that haven't been mentioned.

    • Teófilo Stevenson Vs Muhammad Ali.
    • Pac-Man Vs Edwin Valero
    • Kimbo Slice Vs Brock Lesnar

    Ali wanted to fight Floyd Patterson to become the youngest heavyweight champion but Liston got in before which was probably deserved.
