I thought I was being original but it seems a thread like this pops up every once in a while. No matter my fight has never been mentioned and maybe you guys have a fight you think should have been made.

I'll start with mine

Adonis Stevenson vs Sergey Kovalev is it for me. At the time they weren't the best you had Ward around but this would've been a fun fight.

A reason I think it didn't happen was that Stevenson to me and I may be wrong here was comfortable fighting lesser talent in Canada and getting a pretty good check he had no reason to risk it with a fight like this. If Turki had been around I think this fight gets made.

What are some fight you guys wished would have happened
 
Manny Pacquiao vs Kostya Tszyu, that would have been fire for as long as it lasted. I'd probably favour Manny FWIW
 
Well, I’m gonna have to 2nd wanting to see Roy vs more of the names from his era.

Mikey/Loma was a big one that in hindsight, Mikey probably would have lost. At the time it really bothered me, now it doesn’t seem like as big a deal. In fact until that retirement thread Id all but forgotten that one.

Wilder/Joshua, again doesn’t seem as big of a loss now because of their deflating losses

some of those would have been absolute mental, that is a great list

Lewis v Bowe is my only one i really wanted, between Bowe and Newman though, it was never going to happen, they just didn't want or need any of that smoke, and for good reason
 
so many but i'll give a few that come to mind.

manny mayweather 2010
leonard hagler 83
Jones/benn/eubank 95
a trillion more that never happened because no one ever fights everyone, even Julio Cesar Chavez didn't fight everyone did he?
 
I'm beginning to think a unification bout at 160 will soon join this list, lmao
 
I think
Naseem Hamed vs. Jorge Paez would have been entertaining as hell with bothi n their prime.

for some reason both of them always irritated me but the skill can't be denied
