Which fighters who seemingly would have put on a good fight avoided each other for the longest?

Salvador Sanchez and Eusebio Pedroza won the WBC and WBA featherweight titles in 1980 and 1978 respectively. They fought and beat almost the same sets of challengers at the height of their reign but they never got to face each other and there never were plans to pit them despite media and fan demands up to the time Sanchez died in a car accident late 1982.

There's a window of opportunity also for the likes of comebacking George Foreman and Mike Tyson to fight from late 80s through the mid to late 90s, KO artists David Tua and Tommy Morrison in the mid to late 90s

Brian Mitchells, Hector Camacho and Julio Cesar Chavez never got to fight among themselves at 130 lbs. despite the trio reigning over the division for most of the 80s.

Scared Tyson vs Foreman and Lewis (earlier).

The Klitschko's ducked James Toney, in early 2000's.
