Muhammad.Ali.Joe.FrazierFloyd Mayweather’s bout against Manny Pacquiao is shaping up to be one for the ages.

The two welterweight fighters will duke it out May 2 at Las Vegas’ MGM Grand Garden Arena in one of the most highly anticipated boxing matches in recent memory. Demand to see the fight is through the roof, as tickets to see the fight in person will cost up to $350,000, while watching the fight on pay-per-view still will cost $100.

To help answer that question, we took a trip down memory lane to take a look at some of the all-time greatest fights in boxing history, all the way from Jack Johnson’s historic win over Jim Jeffries in 1910 to Micky Ward’s slugfest with Arturo Gatti in 2002. Click the link below to continue.
