Just wondering how these former middle champs over the last 20 odd years,in their primes would fare amongst the current crop of middle champs.

Trinidad
Hopkins
McCallum
Toney
RJJ
Duran
Hearns
G Man
Jackson
Abraham

The only one on that list Geale beats is Abraham. We are talking prime for prime right?

and even that is no sure thing especially if AA lands early and big.

Thats a great list of boxers. I would love to see any of them fight a current Sergio Martinez.

There is so many great matchup here. I would say Sergio beats Gman, Julian Jackson, Abraham, Duran, possibly also Trinidad it's so hard to say.

Fuck it was great watching Jackson and Gman throw bombs. Both had ridiculous power.

Pretty close to what I was thinking. Except I think Daran beats Sergio. But Sergio beats Trinidad I still can't forget the boxing lesson fellow southpaw winky Wright gave him.

Put Pavlik & Taylor on the list

Hopkins beats all current Middleweights IMO but Hopkins v Martinez would be very interesting...

I'm not sure Duran should be in a 160lb line up but take Abraham out of that list & not one of todays 160lb champs beats anyone on that list.......no one!

Disagree, I reckon Martinez beats Trinidad & Abraham...

[MidniteProwler]

Do you guys reckon Geale would of beat a prime William Joppy or Keith Holmes?

[roscoe]

I did say take Abraham off that list & you honestly reckon that Sergio who got rocked by Chavez Jnr would stand up & beat Tito..........dreaming mate.

[roscoe]

Intersting match ups Prowler with Geale v Joppy & Holmes.........I reckon he would be with a good chance to beat both but Joppy did have good power & Geale does get tagged a lot.

He stood up and beat Pavlik who IMO hits harder than Tito
