Who Would You Like To Return To Boxing

realistically, no fantasy bullcrap, I want to see mike tyson back as the heavyweight champ. If mike can get his act together, which probaly won't happen, he could retire some of these bums(ranked contenders) in the division today.Come on, jameel mccline and larry effing donald! If tyson could fight 3-4 fights per year he would be in tip top condition to challenge for the heavyweight title. I just don't understand the reluctance to fight more than 1-2 times per year. :mad:

Prime Tyson/Ali and Naz

gerald mcclellan jullian jackson aaron pryor sugar ray robinson marvin hagler... i loved to watch tapes on these guys, they all could scrap, good too. aaron pryor and gerald mcclellan were my two favorite to watch, but they're all equal in excitement....

Prime Tyson, no doubt. Prime Hagler.

pryor and SRR no doubt...and maybe Alexis Agruello just to see manny pacquiao get KTFO (for the record i am not a manny hater) :D i dont think you are a hater i think you are a pac man fan, pulling up legendary Alexis Arguello just to see pac gets KTFO... i think you don't see anyone at present time being able to do that...

prime tyson vs prime ali....WTF

a prime sugar Ray Robinson :eek: he'll be tearing it up

Prime Ali for sure, and Prince Naseem

you're right, we'll never know for sure, but i suspect Byrd could beat a prime Max Schmeling, but not as brutally as Louis did. Byrd would probably have more trouble with Billy Conn, because he was a good boxer

Louis had more heart than McCline, he got up off the canvas to knock out Jimmy Braddock and win the title, McCline had Byrd on the canvas and couldn't finish him off, Louis is by far the superior technician, his jab and combinations are better than McCline's, Louis faced better opposition than McCline - all time greats, Max Schmeling, Max Baer, Braddock, Jersey Joe Walcott, and knocked them out But this is an indirect comparison at best. Would Byrd beat Schmelling? We will never know for sure, right?

Would McCline KO Louis? Once McCline felt the power of one of Louis shots, he wouldn't want to be in the ring anymore. Joe's technique was so good it added power to his shots, if he laid the beating Schmeling got in the rematch on McCline, he'd never make it past the first round But how do we know this for sure? I think McCline can bench-press much more than Louis could.

i'd like to see Joe Louis knock today's hw's out of the ring, i'd like to see stanley ketchel jump out of the grave an fight BHop, Harry Greb to fight Tarver, and a prime J.J. Jeffries beat up Ruiz, and Saddler against todays feathers - JMM, Pac, and Hagler against Hops... there's so many more, i could be typing this all night Would McCline KO Louis?

a prime jones would be nice. as would a prime holfeild. to be able to a prime ray robinson fight a prime marvin hagler would be amazing.

Ray Robinson without a doubt, just to see the man in action. He'd just be awesome!! That, or a prime Ali...damn that'd be good.

I would like to see the pre-champ mike tyson return, and here's why: In tyson's first two years of being a professional he fought at least once a month and knocked out all of his oppenents. Thats the mike tyson we need now; tyson who is hungry, angry, and is in tip top fighting condition because he is constantly honing his skills by fighting frequently. Why can't tyson at least fight 3 times a year. He certainly needs the money and practice! :mad:

sylverster stallone

Of course I would love too see Gerald mcClellan come back, he would have went to war with Hopkins, what a great fight that would have been. definetly McClellan he would probably have been the undisputed middle champ.
