Name fighters and the opponents you wish they'd faced....

:laughing:

 

jones jr fought liles a few times actually. i seent um

By the way, it's not necessarily an indictment to name opponents you'd wished a fighter had faced.

PBF:

Margarito
Williams
Casamayor
Pacquiao
Martinez
Cintron

 

LOL, Cintron

Worst fighter ever to appear on HBO more than once

 

And yet, his stature, style and punching power would've made him a formidable challenger for PBF.

 

nah... he was too dumb and too chickenshit

 

Cintron has subtle courage

"Subtle courage" ::, Neil's been on fire lately

 

Quality stuff from Neil in this thread.

seriously "subtle courage" is an ATG line::

 

I think double is still trying to recover

 

"Subtle Courage" ::

 

Bowe: Lewis, Tyson, Foreman

Roy: Dariusz M, Hopkins rematch when it mattered

Hagler: Benitez, Leonard II

ODH: Forrest, Wright

Trinidad: Forrest, Quartey, Norris

Mayweather: Casamayor, Pacquiao (it no longer matter if they fight tomorrow)

Duran: Arguello, Kid Pambele,

J.C.Chavez: Whitaker rematch, Randall III (when it mattered), Trinidad,

Sal Sanchez (if he had not died): Arguello, Gomez rematch

 

Palomino/Cuevas

Sanchez/Pedroza

Chandler/Pintor

Holmes... Dokes, Coetzee, Thomas, etc.

 

Yes to all three. I am still pissed that Sanchez/Pedroza & Chandler/Pintor never happened. I know Sanchez died young, but he never seemed remotely interested in proving who was the best Featherweight in the world while he was a title holder.

And it did become tedious watching Holmes not fight the best around for the last couple of years of his title reign. The one real blessing of Holmes losing to Spinks was not having to watch him get to 50 - 0 by beating up whoever the Cruiserweight champ was at that moment.

Others I would have liked to have seen...

Starling - McCrory
Gerry Cooney - Mike Weaver
Saad Muhammad - Mustafa Muhammed (in a title unification)
Curry - Pryor
Hearns - McCallum
Bowe - Lewis & Tyson
Antuofermo - Hamsho

 

agree on every one of those... although Vito was getting a bit long in the tooth when Hamsho was at his peak... still, would have been a fan-friendly fight

 

too sharp johnson: austin
