    I have him vs corbett,dunkhorst and his defeat late in his career with bill lang.
    And again i don't care a **** if he does not look good enough. He is toó powerful and bigger than hagler period

    Given the Leonard and Duran fights I don't think he can outbox a fast elite defensive counter puncher like RJJ. He performed brilliantly against Obelmejias and Minter but both were far easier to hit.

    Why would they fight at 168 pounds?

    Because fitz was bigger... Simple like that. Even in a catch weight at 165 he destroys hagler

    They were both MW champions. Match them up at MW.

    Tarver has knocked out better men than Fitz, would he destroy Hagler at a catchweight fight?

    Marvin might actually replicate what Tarver did to Roy, but to a prime Roy at that.

    Fitz was good for his time but boxing moved on, any modern boxer who tried the following gets ko'd quickly

    There's barely any video of Fitzsimmons, how can you have him "destroying" One of the greatest MWs of all time.

    Except he didn't do exactly the same, he leaned back but not as stiffly as that on flat fee as Fitz boxed on flat feet. It's still a cardinal sin though.

    And Ali still got punished for that against Frazier. If he slipped to the side against Frazier he doesn't lose.

    Was ali in his prime in 1971? No.. Did ali it in his prime 64-67 ? Yes
    Did anyone touch him when he was doing it? No
    You should have been in his córner in the place of dundee or bundini . you would have changed the history

    I got 3 vídeos of him, and i have seen tons of picks of him and did read about the size of some of his rivals,and its enough to know that he was bigger than hagler and destroys him. You neither have watched anything of john l sullivan . i imagine that you dont pick roy jones over him
