.
Buddy Baer vs Cleveland Williams: Williams
Bob Fitzsimmons vs Max Schmeling Schmeling
Jack Sharkey vs Tom Sharkey : Jack Sharkey had it all over Tom
James J. Jeffries vs Riddick Bowe: Big Jeff wins this one. It would be a lot like the Golota fight.
David Tua vs John L. Sullivan: Tua. Sullivan is too outdated
Jack Dempsey vs Vitali Klitschko : Vitali. By KO...Don't be fooled by the lumbering Ogres Dempsey faced in his day..... People crack me up with this "swarm" $#!t, like it's some magic power or something. 6'1/190 just doesn't beat 6'7"/250, especially when the latter has skill.
.
Frank Bruno vs Ezzard Charles: Ezzard wins this one. He's WAY too smart for the godawful slow Bruno.
James J. Corbett vs Joe Frazier : Really? Frazier wins this one easily.
Ken Norton vs Jack Johnson: Johnson. Norton should win this one but he's too cautious.
.
Mike Tyson vs Gerry Cooney : Tyson. Cooney has the tools but lacks the heart.
Leon Spinks vs Gene Tunney: Tunney. Spinks is more trouble than expected but Gene is one of boxing's smartest. Spinks is one of boxing's dumbest.
Tommy Burns vs Primo Carnera: Primo. He's dumber than Leon but just TOO big for boxing's shortest champion.
James J. Braddock vs James "Buster" Douglas: Buster. He had one good night and he's just to big and skilled.
Max Baer vs Ron Lyle: Baer wins. He would outlast Lyle.
Old George Foreman vs Ike Ikeabuchi: Old George. If anyone can survive The President's nukes it's Big O'l George.
Joe Louis vs 70's Muhammad Ali: Louis. Prime ALI makes a monkey of Louis but 70s was smarter, harder to beat, but lacked all that would trouble Louis.
.
Rocky Marciano vs Roy Jones Jr. : Marciano. Would I die a horrible death if I pick Jones? You can't badmouth Rocky here. But, seriously, he'd find a way to power through the windmill Jones would bring. After losing nearly every round, Rocky stops Jones late.
.
Wladimir Klitschko vs Joe Choynski: Wladimir. No one before Joe Louis would beat Wladimir, with the possible exception of Jeffries.
.
Evander Holyfield vs Michael Spinks: Holyfield. But Spinks' prime was at 175. Holyfield's was at 208.
.
Larry Holmes vs Lennox Lewis: Holmes. The best match on this list. Holmes is a bit smaller but worlds faster.
.
Sonny Liston vs Jersey Joe Walcott: Liston would find a way to knock out Walcott.
Shavers
Williams
Schmeling.......................Bob is a blownup middleweight.
Jack Sharkey could box and hit
Jeffries.too strong..........better stamina
Tua small but a better left hook.
Dempsey.....................swarms and TKO stoppage beats Vitali
Charles too savvy
Frazier...once his music starts It's no contest.
Johnson...............Norton never fought a hitter he wasn't afraid of.
Tyson..................Cooney with 1 arm doesn't beat Tyson.
Tunney, outscores neon Leon.
Canera with his jab alone. HE beat a very good Tommy Loughran this way.
Braddock..................great boxer/puncher.
Lyle can avoid the big right hand and continue to outscore Baer.
Old George all week long.
Louis, as Ali starts the rope a dope, that would not work against a prime Louis.
Marciano overpowers RJJ despite the speed difference
Wlad K......too big
Holyfield too busy
Holmes ....everyday of the week
Liston early.
IMO Ali, vs. Holmes.....................................
Liston vs. Louis..................Louis with hard combinations, in a very tough fight..
Toss up, even though Johannson could knock out Shavers this is a who hits who first fight.
Williams I like his skill and before he got shot I considered him in the top 5 in the world, which is why Patterson ducked him.
Fitzsimmons hits harder and is faster than Louis so he wins this fight.
I am picking Sharkey, Jack that is.
Jeffries stiffs Bowe, who was a big disappointment to me in that he never lived up to his abilities.
Tua is too fast for Sullivan.
Klitschko is too large for Dempsey, but if Dempsey tags him he wins.
Charles is too skilled for Bruno and wins easily.
Frazier is too fast and cute for Corbett.
Tyson is too strong for Cooney who can not land the left hook.
Tunney is much better than Spinks.
Burns is better than the fraud Carnera
Braddock is better than Douglas who only had one super fight in his career.
Baer hits too hard for Lyle who wilted under big punchers.
Ali is too slick for Louis and wins a U.D.
Marciano should win at heavyweight
Holmes is a better fighter than Lewis who lost two fights with guys that had no business even being in the ring with him.
Liston would knock out Walcott in less than 10.
