SBD Promotions, in conjunction with Title Bout 2.5, presents a first-of-its kind fistic spectacular paying tribute to the champions and contenders, past and present, who passed away during an incredibly grim 30-day span.

REQUIESCAT IN PACE will be a multi-site promotion consisting of seven fights spotlighting Johnny Caldwell, Cesar Brion, Nicolas Cervera, Yama Bahama, Arturo Gatti, Alexis Arguello and Vernon Forrest. Each will take place in their respective primes against hypothetically plausible opponents at historically correct venues.

Gatti and Arguello have already been featured in tribute fights in this thread, but I don't think anyone will mind seeing them again.

I would have liked to include Marco Antonio Nazareth and Pancho Moncivais, but both were relative novices not yet rated by anyone for the game.

RIP will open with Johnny Caldwell in the rematch he never got against fellow Belfast brawler Freddie Gilroy. I have opponents in mind for the rest of the fights, but am more than willing to listen to suggestions ...
