I'd imagine Hell for a boxing fan would be if we woke up tomorrow in 1971, and Ali-Frazier 1 was being called by Ray Flores and Kendall Gill.
Don King would be deducting from fighter's purses the cost of the platforms and the extra lighting. "Wait a minute! How did a platform and some lights cost 5 million????"
It's just impossible to envision certain guys "stepping into the light"... Sandy Saddler, Ike Williams, Carmen Basilio, Jake Lamotta, Ezzard Charles... these people don't step into lights
Nah, not Calzaghe. He'd be sitting across from Kalle in that picture, sharing the pot of powder gold.
There are guys in the past who would love to step into the light Lloyd Honeyghan, Hector Camacho, Spazienza, Hoya, Floyd, Zab, Froch Really obnoxious people like that
Cuevas might be awkwardly positioned under the light by a handler, wearing a dour-possibly-confused expression
"Kelly Pavlik, step intoooooooooooo the lights!" "Oh cmommmnnn! It's already fuckin 1 am! The bar closes at 3!"
