Bowe gets a lot of action with these lists...we could also perhaps ask for Bowe versus Tyson.
How about Mayweather against Camacho? at lightweight? (130-35).

Many fights mentioned would have been great. Unfortunately many never happened because weight, timing and in many occasions, promoters.
One matchup that comes to mind was Tyson-Witherspoon. Naturally fans might assume a win for Tyson, but Witherspoon on his best night would have been a dangerous matchup for Tyson. One of the things that kept Tyson away from Tim was Tim's lawsuit against Don King, which resulted in somewhat of a blacklisting of Witherspoon. This protected Kings fighters while Witherspoon was still in his prime. A time where King controlled the heavyweight division.
