    Walcott. If an old Walcott can nearly beat a young Marciano, he can beat Wlad no problem.

    Jersey Joe KO3.

    Yep, a world heavyweight champion who fought Marciano and Louis can't be obscure.

    Game, set, match.. ad infinitum.

    Barbados Joe Walcott is hardly obscure and is an All Time Great. I suggest you do some reading.

    Good lord, is this really the new level this forum has attained?

    People don't even know who Barbados Joe Walcott is? This thread wasn't a ruse to flush these neanderthals from the shrubbery, but boy howdy, how it has achieved just those ends.

    I think my time here is nearing done.

    On a serious note, I think Barbados Joe would beat Wlad. Billy Smith had a sizable height advantage over Walcott, too, and he had to resort to biting to win a decision. Wlad is too much of a sissy for that, so Walcott would beat him.

    Walcott was a sensational badass, but I don't know that he could win with modern rules.

    Fights are too short, and Wlad has all the tools to score all the points. I don't think a fighter that small can devastate a fighter that big, and the fight isn't long enough for Barbados to really tear it down.

    In his own rules, though? I don't think Wlad could go more than 12-15 rounds. And I think when he was dragged that far, the consequences would be spectacular. We're talking Brewster I gassing.

    Us big guys have trouble developing THAT much stamina.

    Edit: I misread his height when I looked up his stats for comparison. Egg on my face, I thought I read five-eleven. Yeah. He goes down in the first.

    I never claimed to be a historian, i dont thrive to be and im far from one. You're a numbers man. You know statistics. Evidently , from other threads it hasn't advanced your understanding of the sport.....What is learnt from understanding yeras of boxing technique and ecxuting it on others will always fuel a better judgement from what you read in a book.
