Mismatches that would be exiting while they last

Name some examples of MMs that would be mismatches, but exciting to watch.

Some examples:

Prime Tyson vs Tua: The 80s Mike would light Tua up horribly, but it would be exciting however long it lasts.

Prime Foreman vs Ibeabuchi: George would beat the living fuck outta Ike, but it'd be action packed while it lasts.

Dwight Qawi vs Prince Charles Williams: Qawi would give Prince Charles a terrible beating, but Williams would try his best and make it a fun fight while it lasts.

Jeff Fenech vs Wayne McCullough: Same as above. Fenech gives McCullough a terrible beating, but it would be all action.

Others?

 

Two others I thought of:

Hatton vs Provodnikov: Hatton gives Provo a bad beating, but it would be one helluva exciting fight.

Trinidad vs Margarito: Tito would beat ten shades of shit outta Margarito, but it would be action packed.

 

Duran williams.

 

I was thinking Duran vs Cotto.

Would be exciting, but Duran would give Cotto one of the worst beatings ever.

 

Prime Mosley vs Maidana: Very fun while it lasts, but Shane would destroy Chino.

 

Leonard vs Vargas

Ray would absolutely light Vargas up and knock him out, but it'd be exciting cause you know Nando would bring it and try his best.

 

Which Williams?

Coz in the case of Paul Williams, it applies, but my mind went to Ike Williams which would in no way be a mismatch.

 

Hatton vs Gatti

I remember this being talked about. Arturo would have got beaten up badly by Hatton at the time I think.

 

Dick Tiger vs Frank Fletcher would be incredible.

 

Paul

 

Chavez vs Mancini.

Would be a highly exciting fight, even though Ray would take a horrific beating.

 

Arguello vs Corrales would be fun for the 3-4 rounds it lasts before Chico is carried out on a stretcher.

 

Id give him a few more rounds but hes getting starched

 

Hagler vs. Williams

 

It was happening until that child molester put a beating on Gatti and that was that..

 

Poor Tall Paul in this one.

 

Rosario vs Juan Diaz would be fun for the 3-5 rounds it lasts before Baby Cow gets brutally KOd.

 

I think Paul would do alright against hagler. He'll never come close to win it, and probably catch a bit of a beating, but I'm not sure it would be a.mismatch per se

 

Paul Williams, who got beaten up by Quintana, beaten up twice by Sergio Martinez (first fight was a robbery), and got his ass kicked from pillar to post by Lara in the worst robbery of the last 20 years... against MF Marvin Hagler?????

Its actually beyond a mismatch. Williams would lose to Minter and Hamsho.

The early 80s Hagler stops Paul in about 5 pathetically one sided rounds.

 

Maidana-Rios would have been a war while it lasted, but in the end i think its almost certain that Brandon would have gotten laid out.

 

Just remembering Baldomir beating Judah was a big shock. Floyd got all kinds of criticism for fighting Baldomir then but Baldomir was the champ in the division after beating Judah, if im recalling this correctly. I guess Baldomir goes down as one of the worst welterweight champs.

 

Bumlomir took the crown that Tony Ayala Jr. long held as the being the biggest piece of shit in the sport's history.

In light of what we now know he was doing outside the ring, I wish he would have died when Canelo clocked him.

How the FUCK you rape your own daughter???

 

I think that might be the most fun part.

 

I've always thought Paul getting the first fight vs Martinez was acceptable. The 119 scorecard wasn't though.

 

I know we're talking about mythicsl matchups but Trinidad-Mayorga was exactly this as a fight. One of my favourite fights - a beatdown that was exciting. Same with Sanchez-Gomez really, although nobody would have predicted that had it not happened.

 

Yeah, no one can get justifiably mad about either fighter getting the nod but one stupid card tends to turn it into a controversial decision. I had it a draw (114-114).

 

It's indefensible but it's so bizarre that I think taking punishment to the head could have fucked him up. The guy used his face to block punches a lot of the time. I wouldn't be surprised if his brain is extremely damaged. That Alexander Hernandez guy who was the football player who killed guys had a brain similar to an 80 year old man when they did the autopsy. I think the damage to the head just makes some guys go insane but it's possible Baldomir is just a sick individual. I mean I give that Alexander Hernandez guy some sympathy because the doctors said he was basically too brain damaged to function as a normal person.

 

Floyd got flack for fighting Judah first even though Bumdomir just beat him. He didn't get much criticism for taking the Bumdomir match, it was the snoozefest of how it played out. I'm not sure if there is anybody who has actually watched that fight in its entirety twice.

 

I dont buy CTE as a defense for raping your daughter. Not for a second.

 

Arturo Gatti vs _______ (Insert Name Here)...

1 of Floyd's More Entertaining Fights is his Beat Down of Gatti...Even When Gatti was SHOT & Had No Business Being in the Ring w/Baldomir and Alfonso Gomez, Those Bouts were Entertaining...

Had NOfuckingBUSINESS Fighting Dela @ '47 Either, but the Bout Itself Possessed Entertainment Value...
