I read about that one in Hausers book on Ali. The fight was almost made when Wilt met Ali and Ali started swinging in the air and yelling "Timber!" and Wilt understood he wanted no part of Ali
If Mayweather/Pacquiao doesn't get made it will be one of the greatest fights to never happen...
Name some others...
I'll start:
Roy Jones Jr. vs Tito Trinidad
Tito was supposed to beat Hopkins and face off against RJJ in a superfight. Instead Tito fell off, then RJJ fell off (Pauses and tries to fight tears) and the fight happened when they were both shot to ****..
George Chuvalo vs Randall tex Cobb ! 2 of the hardest bastards ever to step in the ring. Not the best boxers ever but, hell what a fight to watch that would have been.

No, the fight was actually arranged and suppose to happen but Wilts coach told him that despite all of Wilts advantages in height and such, he was a basketball player not a boxer and he talked him out of the fight.
Wilt agree'd and backed out of it, but this was after the meeting where Ali was swinging at him lol.
