We haven't missed all of our generation's versions
Wladimir Klitschko vs David Haye
Oscar De La Hoya vs Floyd Mayweather Jr
Andre Ward vs Carl Froch
None of these qualify as the greatest ever but of our generation these were the equivalent contests, the best fighting the 2nd or 3rd best in the weight class
leonard vs hearns was a great match up
julio cesar chavez vs meldrick taylor
hagler vs hearns
frazier vs foreman
wifredo gomez vs carlos zarate ...both unbeaten with a combined record of 73-0
Jones vs Toney
Morales vs Barrera
Pacquiao Barrera
Prince Naseem Barrera
wow Barrera was a ******* bad @ss.
What would you say was the best boxing match ever in terms of having 2 top fighters fighting each other both at their peak going into the fight (not looking back after it or how good a fight it was etc) just pure build up quality.
Ali v Fraser 1 must have been special.
Even going into the fight. Both Olympic champs, both world champs, both unbeaten. Heavyweight title. Had it all.
The other for me would be Leonard v Duran 1. Again, both unbeaten world champs, both p4p legends.
Sadly we already missed our generations version. Mayweather and Pacquiao have both already peaked and now Pac has started losing again.
