    Clottey/Corrales: I always wanted to see Corrales jump up in weight but not against a good fighter like Clottey who was 170 pounds on fight night. Corrales vs Gatti would have been a much better fight for Corrales's welterweight jump. Man that would have been a GREAT fight!

    Arce/Donaire: Arce's an old skool nuts and guts fighter that has won titles in multiple weight classes but he was way past his prime, he had no business being in the ring with a prime Donaire, it was a horrible style match up.

    I still feel they robbed Arce of a victory in the Carbahal fight, that was a horrible stoppage.

    You guys are getting a hang of this. The Norris fight for Leonard was just terrible IMO.

      I'm going to throw in Jones/Tarver, Jones went into that fight with far too much arrogance and paid for it. That fight was wrong for him in so many ways at that stage in his career. Jones had spent his prime feasting on average contenders for his belts yet went in, at a late stage in his career against a fresh, young, hungry, primes man like Tarver. All wrong, if I was managing him at the time, I would have stayed well clear of that fight.

          Tarver and Roy are the same age

                Tarver only started pro boxin in the mid to late 90s if I'm not mistaken plus he had far fewer fights, minus all the weight gain, loss. Tarver was nowhere near as shop worn as Roy. Tarver physically was in a much younger state.
