Big Daddy & Giant Haystacks in a tag match with Randy Savage & Hulk Hogan with commentary by Kent Walton from the world of sport. Why ? Just because.

Rocky Marciano v Mike Tyson when both were at their peak.
What a battle this would be ! I'd go for Rocky with a ten round stoppage.

Messi & Ronaldo vs Maradona & Pele in World Cup doubles.

How about Sepp Blatter and Jack Warner v Vinnie Jones and Duncan Ferguson in doubles....

In all seriousness Joey Dunlop v Giacomo Agostini. Identical bikes (something like 1976 RG500s) over two legs. One on a short circuit, one on the roads. Others would be Bjorn Borg v Roger Federer on grass or Lance Armstrong as he was v a clean Lance Armstrong. All 3 would be close.

HAHAHA love it. Personally, i'd go for The Real Madrid team of the Early 2000's vs Barcelona's all stars of the last few years

Muhammad Ali vs Anti-lock brakes. Failing that, Johnny Mathis vs Diet Pepsi

Out of interest, when was Tyson's peak?

 

[ccfctommy]

Before he got beat by Buster Douglas

 

[LastGarrison]

So his peak was when he was still only early 20's and his best results were against an old Larry Homes and Spink?

As you can probably tell I don't buy in to him being the greatest of all time.

Tyson isn't even a top 10 heavyweight of all time.

Sugar Ray Robinson v sugar Ray Leonard.

Hagler v Golovkin

Hagler v Monzon

 

[Joy Division]

England Womens World Cup semi final team from 2015 vs England World Cup semi final team from 1990 as they are now.

Eddy Merck v Sean Kelly in the Paris-Roubaix classic.

Kelly was my first road cycling hero......one of the finest classics riders ever winning 9 in total.....

Eddy Merckx regarded as the all-time finest, but Kelly was supreme on the cobbles & I reckon he could've taken Merckx.

I'd also loved to have seen the legendary Tommy Simpson ride in Le Tour......apparently the bravest cyclist ever.....mind you, he used to ride full of brandy & amphetamines so its no wonder really !!

I'd also love to have seen Botham batting against Botham bowling during Bothams 1981 Ashes form.

Finally, the wonderful Seve Ballesteros versus Rory Mac in a 2 club & putter challenge....

England 1966 team v today's England no-hopers!
