    He might get Turpin and Bobo, but gets mauled by Fullmer and outhustled by Basilio.

    I feel Jackson would knock Fullmer out because he had quicker hands, I also feel he`d come from behind and stoop Olsen, it would be like the Graham fight, with Olsen outboxing Jackson then getting caught. I feel Turpin would outbox Jackson, he was too good at slipping shots for Jackson, Basilio was too clever for Jackson.

    I think he has the best chance against Bobo....but I wouldn’t pick him in any of these.

    JJ hit quite a bit harder than SRR punch for punch he was a true 1 punch spark out middleweight Turpin gives him trouble for awhile and Basilio is busy and smart if these two can avoid getting hit solid they can outpoint him

    Olson he stops mid rounds and Fullmer gets destroyed.....Fullmer never got hit by the type of power Jackson brings to the fight and his awkward recklessness is the style that punchers pray for.....I don't see Fullmer beating the top tier punchers with his style...as a rule maulers/swarmers like him generally don't do well with punchers

    I'd favor him against any of them, but if he fought all of them, he'd most likely lose to at least one. The one with the best chance to beat the hawk would be Basilio

    I think you're underestimating the Hawk, he can spark out almost anyone who doesnt have an ATG chin with 1 punch

    The Hawk is a mediocre MW, who would get smothered by Fullmer...he couldn’t hang with G-man and was not cut out to be a top tier MW. He is to LMW what Bazooka Gomez is to SBW. Mediocre MW and FW.

    That hurt

    He went 6 hard rounds with McClellan, and we all know that McClellan is a h2h monster. Jackson looked noticably worse in their second fight, so I write that off as past prime.

    Imo McClellan knocks everyone out on the OP's list as well

    Yeah I overreacted (but only a little lol)! I do think the Hawk is not going to beat many greats at MW and I think it is going to take a great MW to beat Fullmer, and a perfect punch like SRR to get the job done.

    Jackson has punch power that makes Robinson look like Rosenbloom, and accuracy, handspeed and endurance to boot.

    Jackson's main flaws were his lackluster chin. Fullmer never really proved anything to me to say that he can expose these. He was stopped by Tiger if I remember correctly, and Tiger had light hands (though this may be past his prime? Idk he was pretty young.). Jackson would catch him, imo.

    This is from the perspective of someone who's top 5 favorite fighters includes Jackson, so maybe I'm brutally bias, dunno.

    We might both be biased because Jackson is on my most overrated list (although I do like him). But he was at the end of the road vs Tiger (although TBF I would pick Tiger in primes, just not by stoppage.).

    But I would pick Tiger over JJ as well, Tiger vs G-man would be a war

    The Cyclone's chin was not to be disregarded.

    Fullmer was too clever for JJ. Fullmer mauls Jackson...JJ has his best chance vs Bobo and Turpin...Basilio would out grit JJ.
    Apologies for essentially repeating my earlier post.:thumbsup:
