      I watched all of Roys fights but nobody is going to just walk through ward, a prime roy had his struggles at times my man. I never said hes lose to ward but he wouldn't just steamroll him.

        I wouldn't bring back Roy, i really like him but the fights where he dominated wasen't that exciting. I don't see anyone at 160-168 right now giving him much trouble, he might lose a few rounds to Ward. At 175 i don't think he would have much trouble with Stevenson who is fast and a big puncher but kind of predictable. The Kovalev fight would be interesting but i think he is probably the only one right now at 160-175 who would give Roy a big challenge... I would rather see Hagler come back if he fought Golovkin and then went up to 168 to fight Ward ( i know Haglers whole career was at 160).

        I also would like to see Hatton come back in his prime, i know he wasen't an ATG but i would love to see him against Provodnikov, Rios, Matthysse, Maidana. Also Hatton vs Bradley would be cool, Hattons footwork was good so Bradley would have to fight.

          Roy or Tito. I'll vote Roy. Because America. But why no Tyson?

            Prime Roy would be epic as would Pernell. It's difficult to pick between them two

              i'd be surprised if Ward wins more than 2 rounds...we're talkin a prime Roy here

                who wants to see Mike get jabbed and hugged to death by Wlad?

                Wilder vs Mike?

                meh

                  Pernell Whitaker, found him more enyoable to watch than those other two.

                    Brickerito fans would definitely favor Wrapidad over Cotto as the better fighter.

                      Roy would be my first pick of course.

                      But Tito would be great to have around I'd love too see him land his left hook on thurmans chin and I know it would happen because he drops his right hand all night lol.

                      I love sweet pea but we just had 19 years of mayweather and his defensive boxing I want a champion that beats that ass not embarrases it.
