I tried for styles meshing into hopefully great bouts:

Heavy: Ali/Louis

175: Moore/Foster

160: Hagler/Ketchel

147: Robinson/Ray Leonard

135: Benny Leonard/Duran

126: Saddler/Sanchez

118: Zarate/Fenech (I know, but at 118 it is a lot more fun)

112: Wilde/Lopez (although they could both make 108, maybe even 105.)

[McGrain]

Hagler-Ketchel, fuck me, someone is getting hurt.
