We need to see more fights on TV, even if they are not pro fights, can you imagine Joe Calzaghe vs James DeGale in an exhibition match? or Hagler doing some light sparring with Hopkins. Of course the current pros would go easy but that's some crazy **** right there.
You see this kind of thing happen all the time in other single sports like Tennis where Sampras will play Federer or Agassi and Nadal vs Fed + Sampras. The older guys although retired would help build the name of the new guys and they can do it for charities or just for plain cash.
So go find some retired fighters with some hunger in their bellies and instead of them embarrassing themselves coming back (Hearns, Holyfield) put them all in exhibition fights.
