    I am curious as to who many of you would least to want fight "inside a phone booth". Many can be said for fighters who have great this or that.. foot speed.. some long straight punches to keep their opponents at bay.. but what of the men who excelled at the short range, very inside fighting.

    James Toney - it'd be too crowded in there

    I actually had to look him up... what made you pick him in particular?


    All joking aside.. I think Toney may do really well in a phone both..

    tex cobb. what a big, rough dude. You aint knocking him out unless you are a great fighter. A phone booth is a street fight. Think how small it is. Cobb is about the biggest game brawler I can think of just now so I say Tex.

    He was compact, and threw verry short powerfull punches on the inside. That was essentialy what alowed him to become a top heavyweight at 5'7''.

    I think Evander's constant wrestling and use of his dome would **** me off the most
