"Old Legend" vs "Young And Hungry" fights that the old legend came out on top.

[Thraxox]

What are the fights that the Old fighters here won? It must be that The Young and Hungry Fighter has a potential to be an ATG/HOF and the old fighter is already a cemented ATG.

I can think of Joe Calzaghe against Kessler
Or Lennox Lewis against Vitali

Because it's just sad for me to think about Ali against Holmes or Leonard against Camacho.....
Or Louis against Marciano....and Robinson against Archer....

hopefully Wlad against Joshua

hopefully Wlad against Joshua

........I hope it won't end like what Marciano did against Louis 60 years ago.

Duran vs Leonard. Duran wasn't old per se, but lacked all the physical advantages and hadn't looked that good at the higher weight, and there was already talk of him being past it, but ramped it up for Leonard and came in truly motivated and hungry once again and we saw one of the greatest fights of all time.

Its scary but were hopeful.

I'm already imaging Jim Lampley telling something like this towards the fight when the two fighters walk towards the ring.

"We've seen this before and we are seeing it again. An Old Legend facing a young and Hungry Fighter. When will history Learn that it favors the young? That What Marciano did to Louis and what Holmes did to Ali would repeat once more, or would Wladimir make one for the history books, joining with Lennox Lewis in his fight against Vitali Klitschko, and Joe Calzaghe against Mikkel Kessler."

Sadly Jim won't get the chance, since Joshua is with Showtime and Wlad's HBO contract expired
