If time travel was possible and you were allowed to kidnap two fighters from the past to fight in the year 2005, who would it be?

I'll pick a young Tommy Hearns or a young George Foreman...
The middles and the heavies just got more fun. :D

I'd have to bring back Marvin Hagler for the Middleweight division and Sugar Ray Leonard so they could have another fight.

I was one of the many who thought Marvin Hagler won. Those two in their primes where two of the most complete fighters i have seen in years.

Exactly the 2 boxers I would like to see today. Put in Duran and Hearns, too! And we're back to the glorious days of boxing!!

They were the fabulous four. :D All of them were amazing fighters. They all ghad amazing fights against each other too. The most shocking fight to me was Hearns-Duran because i never expecting Duran getting beaten that easily. It sends shivers down my spine when i see that fight just like Hagler-Hearns

How I wanted Duran to win over Hearns. Put a prime Duran in there and I think the results would've been different.

It is ironic that while the Fab 4's fights with other pugilists were some of the greatest or most memorable in boxing history, their bouts against one another (Leonard-Duran, Hagler-Hearns) were also the most disappointing in history!

I'd bring back Rocky Marciano and Julio Casar Chavez
I like to see if Marciano could stay undefeated against the bigger heavyweights we have to day. And I would like to see how Chavez would fare against guys like Tszyu, Mayweather, Cotto, and Jose Luis Castillo.

I would bring back Sonny Liston and Jack Dempsey they would clean up the HW division.
