I was watching Grudge Match last night (great movie, by the way; really surprised me) and being that that movie is based around a fantasy boxing match, I thought that idea might make for a fun thread.
What are some fantasy sports matches, be they between boxers, wrestlers, football teams, hockey teams etc. etc. that you'd love to see, and who do you think would win?
I'll start with the obvious one; Tyson vs. Ali. Now, I've never been a huge boxing fan, but I know enough about Ali and Tyson to know that they were two of the greatest boxers ever, but they fought with completely different styles. Ali was very quick and nimble on his feet and could beat you with his mind, but Tyson was a straight out brawler who hoped to kill you with his ridiculous hands.
I honestly don't know who would win, but gun to my head I'll say Tyson. It'd be a hell of a match, though.
One more obvious one; LeBron vs. Jordan, one-on-one in their respective prime. LeBron is obviously something else, but Jordan is... well... he's Jordan. I'd have to give that to Jordan, but I'm curious as to what you guys who watch basketball frequently think about that match up.
For another one, I'd love to see the '98 Denver Broncos vs. the '13 Denver Broncos; Elway vs. Manning leading two Super Bowl caliber teams. I unfortunately didn't watch football when the Broncos won their Super Bowls, but I think I'd have to give the edge to the '98 Broncos simply because that defense was better than what the Broncos put on the field last season.
What say you, FAN?
