The first two fights I'd kill to see are Mayweather vs. Sugar Ray Leonard and the other one would be Tyson vs. Ali. Honestly, I think Floyd and Sugar Ray is a toss up, but I'm quite certain that a prime Tyson would knock Ali out.

What other fights that span generations would be godly?

Ali would not knock out Tyson. If Earnie Shavers couldnt knock Ali out, then Tyson wasnt.

I would love to see Lennox vs Larry Holmes also.

Floyd vs. Tommy Hearns

Shavers didn't have the speed, accuracy and defense like Tyson. Poor comparison. There has never been a HW with the combo of SPEED, power, and defense like Tyson.

Prime Tyson was much better than Ernie Shavers though.

I would love to watch Tyson vs Ali but only if we can bring Cus D'Amato back to life to train Mike. Otherwise, Ali would KILL his ass in the most comedic way possible.

:beli: exaggerrating much? In a comedic way? Really? The same comedic way he defeated Smoking Joe who Tyson is better and more skilled than. Stop.
