1949 heavyweights v. 1999 heavyweights

lol 1999
9-0

waiting for the nostalgic mafia arguing

 

Clean sweep for the class of '99

 

It's a bit of a silly thread isn't it?

One year later two extra hall of famers join the ranks of the 1949 cast. Joe Louis and Rocky Marciano. If you include Charles and Walcott thats four all time greats in one list. Baker, maxim and Henry were as good as any non champion. It's not so far away as one might think.

Charles

Louis
Savold
Maxim
Henry
Baker
Layne
Walcott
Gardner
Oma
Marciano

 

lol and you think that it would change the things? , the funny thing is that you are saying that 1949 louis would be a big force lol

 

Not quite a clean sweep but 99 takes a majority. I think Walcott beats Ike.

 

:rofl he stopped the much faster,durable and harder to hit byrd but he is not catching glass chin walcott?

 

Out boxes him Byrd isn't faster or harder to hit than Walcott. Especially a 12 round fight I see Walcott taking a clear UD.

 

Your opinion I don't see Byrd harder to hit than Walcott. Even while taking chances. No way in heck is he getting taken out quicker. Walcott UD.

 

Even if you are right, the version of Byrd that Ibeabuchi beat was not the finished article.

We are basically matching a developing Ibeabuchi, who had beaten other developing fighters, against a prime Walcott here.

I am going with Walcott.
