QUOTE (SENTRAL @ May 24 2010, 10:51 AM)  What if Zab Judah was allowed to carry on in the Tszyu fight? He would have just gotten KTFO in the 3rd rd. |

QUOTE (Fitz @ May 24 2010, 09:07 PM) What if Oscar got the decision against Trinidad? There would have been an immediate rematch at 154 and Tito would have won. What if Manny would have fought Marquez a third time at 135 for the undisputed title? |

Fitz, this game is so complex that people have no way of not ruining it.
Asking just one question will require some sort of a tree-like answer... with branches denoting fights and outcomes. Hagler winning may have one significant consequence but some fights whose outcomes are changed... we're looking at another dimension here. |

QUOTE (Fitz @ May 25 2010, 01:20 AM) Hard to say, I imagine the fight wouldn't have been much different, probably just another close one. I personally don't think too much would have changed for that fight and after that fight. What if Pacquiao vs DLH never happened? Where would Pacquiao be now? Would he have moved onto 147, or would he still be at around 135-140? I agree with the first statement. Same outcome for the third fight. If Pac vs DLH never happened, then Floyd wouldn't have demanded any blood tests and is now in retirement again because he got KTFOed. |

What if Ali had fought Ellis and Mathis before taking on Smokin' Joe? |

It would have made no difference whatsoever to the beating Joe dished out. Unless you think Mathis & Ellis resemble Frazier in any way shape or form.
What if Ali vs Frazier had a competant referee who did not allow Ali to initiate 200+ clinches in their second fight? |

What if Ali vs Frazier had a competant referee who did not allow Ali to initiate 200+ clinches in their second fight? First of all, if Ali would have fought Ellis and Mathis first, Frazier would have probably made the mistake of facing Foreman and that would have been the end of it. If not, Ali would have had four fights and considerably more rounds under his belt before getting in the ring with Frazier. It would have made the difference in a decision. Using the prevalent thinking by you and most on this thread, a different referee wouldn't have changed a motherfuckin' thing. This post has been edited by SmartyBeardo: May 24 2010, 09:04 PM |

His opinion on Ali means jack shit. |

QUOTE (GARCIA @ May 24 2010, 02:29 PM) What if ROY JONES would of RETIRED after winning the HeavyWeight Title?? He would have one loss with an *. He would be remembered as one of the very greatest boxers of all time by most and a GOAT by many, while some haters would claim he never really fought anyone. What if Rocky Marciano had not retired? |
