Great Rematches That Never Happened
How could these be greatest rematches if they never happened?
Next question!

Jones Hopkins. did we really need to wait 17 years for it?
As other pointed out, Chavez looms large in this category. Sweet Pea was denied a rematich, Taylor II occorred way after Taylor's prime, but the most painful one of all, IMO, was Frankie Randall.
Randall defeated Chavez convincingly the first time around and looked like he was on the verge of doing it again in the 2nd fight, ony to have the fight stopped (or Chavez's desire to stop fighting strangely honored) on cuts and somehow given to Chavez.
The third fight took place a billion years later and Randall had already lost a trillion times by then. He didn't have the name recognition for other big fights. the robbery in 2nd fight and effective denial of a rematch really was a cruel thing to do to the man.
Hagler-Hearns II
Toney-Tiberi II
Co sign.Have the utmost respect for Chavez and he made some nice adjustments in that 2nd go.But Randal was shaking off some hellacious body shots and touching Chavez more and more,I think the writing was on the wall and Chavez pulled a no mas.The 3rd 'fight' was all about stats and pride for JCC...and a pay check for a out of rehab Randall.Damn shame his demons got the better of him...Frankie was a superb fighter when on and 'right'.
