This Mark Clancy?\nhttp://www.boxrec.com/record274588.htm\n\nThe WBA Cruiserweight champ is actually Virgil Hill, so you must have gotten hit in the head harder than you know.

Ricky Hatton is British and a champion, Lennox Lewis was Jamaican/British/Canadian and was a champ. Nationality doesn't figure into it.

Two rough, tough and gutsy fighters. Great match up buddy! Both fighters have been through the wars and fought the best fighters in their weight class and of their generation. Jones defeated the likes of Emile Griffith, Ray Robinson. Tiger beat the likes of Fullmer, Griffith and Jose Torres. I see this fight being a mix of tactics at times in the fight and toe to toe slugging. Both guys weren't known for knockout power. Therefore I see this one going the distance with Tiger winning by a close but unanimous decision.

Your thinking about Virgil Hill\n\nhttp://www.boxrec.com/boxer_display.php?boxer_id=000479\n\nBut he won the WBA Light Heavyweight Title in 1987. He won the IBC Cruiserweight Title in 1998 and the WBA Cruiserweight Title in 2000.\n\nMarvin Camel was the 1st when he won a 15 round decision over Mate Parlov on March 31, 1980. He won the Vacant WBC Cruiserweight Title.\n\nhttp://www.boxrec.com/boxer_display.php?boxer_id=854\n\nPS- I'm an editor on that site.

I think that the best possible matchup that could be put together right now is Nikolay Valuev vs Wladimir Klitschko. I realize that this may not be the most interesting fight for the American boxing fans but the truth of the matter is these two men are dominating heavyweight division at the moment and it would be great to find out  who is the best. \n\nIt may also be interesting to see a rematch between Lamon Brewster and Wladimir Klitschko but given the shape of the both fighters in recent matches I seriously doubt that there's any chance that Lamon could pull another suprise. He would most likely be dominated and completely controlled and in the end get knocked out just like Chris Byrd.\n\nI can think of one more matchup that wouldn't perhaps get so much media attention but it would be really great to see; sort of a match of the future champions and that's Samuel Peter vs Alexander Dimitrenko. Peter is one of the most powerful boxers and hardest hitters in boxing today and Dimitrenko is a very talented young Ukrainian fighter who lives and trains in Hamburg (he's trained by Fritz Sdunek). He's 6' 7 tall, very athletical and has style almost identical to Klitschko brothers. Dimitrenko is undefeated in 21 professional matches while Peter has only one loss (to W. Klitschko) in 27 fights. This would in my opinion be an outstanding matchup.

Among the heavyweight fighters, I think it has to be Joe Louis.  He had one streak where he would fight another challenger every month.  He called it the "bum-a-month" club.  He took on all comers and he beat them all.  And he was a classy guy on top of all of that.\n\nThere were other great champions of course, including Muhammad Ali, Rocky Graziano, and Rocky Marciano, and going way back, Max Baer and John L. Sullivan (the first really great boxer), but Joe Louis stands above them all.\n\nGood luck!!

As long as he doesn't lead with his chin and picks his shots, Patterson can win a 11th rd KO in this bout.

MAX A GERMAN HAD BEATEN JOE LOUIS FOR HIS ONLY PRO LOSS IN 1936 AND THIS WAS AT A TIME WHEN NAZIS RULED GERMANY AND MUCH OF EUROPE.  THOUGH MAX WAS A NICE GUY HE WAS PORTRAYED AS A VILLIAN AND JOE KNOCKED HIM OUT IN 1 ROUND.  STRONG ARGUMENT HERE FOR GREATEST SPORTING EVENT BUT THE MATCH BETWEEN JOE FRAZIER AND MUHAMMAD ALI IN 1971 WAS ALSO A SPECTACULAR EVENT.

in terms of quality, I'll say the Philippines. PacMan is probably the best pound for pound boxer right now and can be compared with the other greats in any division in any era. In terms of quantity, there certainly are more mexicans who are or were champs.

He also defeated the great Azumah Nelson among some other very good fighters.  He was a great fighter and despite his untimely death will still go down in boxing history as an all time great.
