Palomino and Cuevas were both fighting out of Los Angeles at the same time. It would have made good money and should have happened.
I think I remember Trinidad-Quartey being made and then falling apart before it was official.

Optimists might say it hasn't happened yet, but from my perspective, I think history will show that Pacquiao vs Maywether never happened. Not that it would've necessarily been a "great" fight, it's just that we'll never know.

There's just so many, but the biggest of them all is Bowe-Lewis, they never made any effort to make this fight happen even after '93.
Second is Foreman-Holmes, why, George doesnt want it, Jones vs McClellan is another, and the fabulous four of the welterweight division in the late 1990s, DLH, Tito, Quartey and Whitaker, Ike didnt get to fight two of them when it was already scheduled, I'll take it anytime watching Quartey-Whitaker and Quartey-Trinidad than any of Pacquiao's last five fights.

Not what I would call compelling match-ups, but it would have been interesting to see how much better - if at all - the losers of the first fight would haved fared in Duran vs Buchanan II and Ali vs Foreman II.
