    Win or lose for Trinidad, great match ups
    Gomez vs. Sanchez 2
    Tyson vs. Foreman
    James Toney vs. Hopkins
    Benitez vs. Hearns 2
    You know as well as I know, that Trinidad would get destroyed by Marvin hagler. What can Trinidad do against a guy he can't hurt? The only way for him to hope for a victory against Hagler is to cut Hagler up and hope for a stoppage. Hagler can out-point Tito, out-muscle Tito, and out-brawl Tito. What strong point does Tito have against a guy like Hagler? Power? That power is negated by Hagler's excellent punch-resistance.

      True, but it would still be a good fight to watch, if Duran fought Hagler, so can Tito, win or lose, great match up for me atleast, I'm sure all the non great fighters who fought Hagler still did their thing.

            Duran/Chavez at 135.

            Toney/Hagler or Hopkins at 160.

            Holmes/Ali at heavy.

            Jones/Moore at 175.

            Marciano/Holyfield at 190+

            Morales/Gomez at 122.

            Ray Leonard/Trinidad at 147.

            Hearns vs. ANYONE at 154.

            This is how I'd see it:

            Whitaker outpoints the poor mans version of himself over 12 rounds. I'd say an 8-4 decision would be about right...maybe 7-4-1. Quicker and craftier in his prime, with a bit less power.

            The version of Bowe that fought Holy in their first fight stops prime Foreman late with a hard uppercut...after weathering the early Foreman onslaught and picking himself up off the canvas.

            Hearns is up on the scorecards by 1 round, in a scheduled 15 round bout, until Ray stops him in the 12th with a devastating left hook.

            Duran stops Chavez in the 13th round after an all-out slugfest. We'd see two of the toughest bastards to ever do it but Durans better boxing skills would help him land of Chavez a bit more frequently.

            In a 15 round bout, Hagler stops Toney in the 13th or 14 after taking a pretty bad beating himself. This is probably my biggest dream fight.

            Ali would take a very close decision over Holmes, who would ***** about being robbed. Holmes' jab would give Ali hell.

            Jones potshots and stays away from Moore all night en route to a comfortable decision.

            I'm completely stumped about Holy/Rocky. I think Holy would win a razor thin decision over 15 rounds.

            Morales was very strong at 122 and Gomez was one of the best ever at this weight. I'd favor Morales to win a close decision based on his versatility and natural boxing ability.

            Leonard would box Trinidads ears off and stop him in the later rounds.

            I put the last one out on the table because I think there could really be a case made for Hearns being the best 154 pounder ever. He was a murderous puncher there and still retained a lot of his speed.
