    The fight was agreed. Around 2004 time, Winky Wright ruined those plans though. Had Shane beat Wright he would’ve fought a returning Trinidad next.
    ah okay i see.

    for some reason i thought you meant around the late 90s lol.

    quartey-trinidad almost happened around 97-98 i believe.

    Thurman - Brook, prime unbeaten versions
    johnny nelson alluded to thurman being somewhat of a admirer of brook in an old interview, stating that thurman came up to him and they were chatting, and thurman said brook was either the best welterweight in the world or one of the best welterweights, and this was when they were both champions.

    would have been a great fight for sure.

    brook tried calling out wbc champ danny garcia but was ignored lol

    we did almost get brook vs. jesse vargas though who was wbo champ, but vargas eventually went with the big money fight in pacquiao

    this possibly could have happened if both fighters were on the same network, as both expressed interest in it, with floyd being more vocal about it.​

        JuanMa vs Gamboa was all the craze for a while back in the day. After Salido smoked JuanMa and Gamboa moved up, that was all she wrote on the matter. An unfortunate victim to Bobby's marinating treatment.

          A very strange case. Foreman bowed out in 77' just as Holmes became a contender, and Holmes owned the heavyweight division for the next 7 years. Soon after, Foreman mounted his comeback which lead to his regaining the title, after the Tyson, Douglas, Holyfield and Bowe era. As 40 somethings, they were both a fixture in the rankings, but would once again miss each other.
          Two of the all-time greatest.

              Jermell Charlo vs Tim Tszyu.

              Sad part was no promotional issues was in the way. One fighter just didn't want none of it.
