        Good list, but how can you leave out Hagler-Hearns?

          Leonard vs Hagler would not qualify, both past there prime and Leonard out of his weight class.

            IMO, Hagler vs Leonard is the very DEFINITION of a "Superfight"

              It was a superfight with huge anticipation and build up.

              But why do you care? After all "jabs don't matter"

                  If fighters are not in their prime, not a superfight.

                  Tyson vs Lewis, would not make also, since Tyson was well past his best.

                    so pac may is not a superfight?

                    a superfight is just a really big, anticipated fight.
                    Tyson - lewis was huge.

                      If they are not in their primes, no.

                      No suggestion so far they are slipping though.
