    Looking at the time, man, it's a wonder they didn't fight.

    And thanks for the knowledge...
    Woo was kinda avoided by Carbahal and Gonzales at 108 if I remember.Back when those two were makin big bucks for their trilogy.I think they made a mil apiece for 2nd fight that's crazy even Choc never made more then 500 I think for 1st fight with thai kid I'm not even gonna try and spell.Plus they all got 2 names anybody else think they should make that illegal just because its confusing as hell lol.

      Haha. When I looked up Woo, three different websites had his name as Yuh Myung Woo, Myung Woo-Yuh and Yuh Woo-Myung. Haha. It's a cluster-woo-****.

        1. Bowe vs Lennox would not have been a great fight but SHOULD have happened

        2. Naseem Hamed vs Morales should have occured before the Barrera fight, but Hamed felt Barrera had won the fight against Morales. Bad decision.

        3. James Toney vs Chris Eubank/Nigel Benn. Toney called them out on live TV, yet the pair never traveled to the states for a fight with him. Benn had beat Iran Barkley, but didn't want anything to do with James Toney after he witnessed how Toney had toyed with Barkley.

        4. Larry Holmes vs Foreman. Negotiations collapsed between the two and it was almost a done deal.

          Floyd Mayweather vs Paul Williams

          Manny Pacquiao vs Edwin Valero
          Duran vs Pryor is a 50/50 fight that could go either way. I think Holmes would've outboxed foreman. Paul William would be too big for Floyd. Gerald breaks Roy down IMO. Manny vs Edwin would be interesting. Edwin was the better boxer but Manny could dish it out.

            Nigel Benn was overrated imo. I just couldn't see him beating a Ward, Toney, Hopkins, Roy, GGG, or a Mike Mccalum.

              This fight would've been an absolute blood path. I'm talking Pryor vs Aruolla type of war. For some reason, the fight was never discussed but it would've been a classic bout. Manny but tko

              Oscar De Lehoya vs Vernon Forest:
              This would've been an absolute technical master piece. I would've favored Oscar in this fight bit Vernon's range and jab would've made things interesting.

              James Toney vs Bernard Hopkins:
              Two highly skilled defensive technicians with so many tool in their toolbox. This was a fight that everyone wanted to see but for some reason it never happened. Hopkins SD


              GGG vs Andre Ward:
              This fight at a catch weight of 164 would've been an instant classic. For whatever reason why GGG ducked Ward. If this fight would've came to fruition, Ward would've came out to victor due to being more skilled and having more of a physical advantage.

              Keith Thurman vs Timothy Bradley:
              After the first Pacquiao fight, everybody wanted this fight. Bradley's contract was up and everybody was wondering if Bradley was going to leave Bob Arum and go over to PBC to test the waters. This fight would've been an interesting bout but I think the bigger, stronger, faster, and more skilled Thurman would've came out on top.

              Shawn Porter vs Marcos Madianna:
              This fight was never negotiated but omg this would've been a war. I think this fight would've been fight of the decade or century.

              Any more you guys can think of?
              Did he duck? I thought he asked for the catchweight and Ward wanted to fight him at 168?

                Froch vs GGG at 168 is an absolute war.

                  I never really was interested in this fight. I think stylistically GGG is a nightmare for Froch.

                    Prime Pacquiao Vs Prime Money May.
                    Should have happened in early 2010.
