    Obviously you want to live.

    Only lineal champions are in the argument for now!

    He wouldn’t intimidate me in the slightest.

    Johansson
    Patterson
    Ali
    Spinks bros
    Douglas

    Don’t believe any of those would beat me up just for accidentally spilling my pint on their lap. Some might even buy me a replacement pint.

    Dempsey.

    Then I’d tell him to go fetch me another. And hop to it.

    Tommy Burns. He was small enough, and I'm large enough, that I might have a chance of getting away alive. Aside from that, I would apologize, offer to pay to have the pants cleaned or replaced, and hope for good humor on Tommy's part. :cool:

    It's too bad this couldn't have happened after Tom was older. I'm big enough that I could have told him I'm Jess Willard, the one who beat Johnson. That might have slowed him down a little.

    Most of the better heavyweights in history probably forgives a person who did that,most of them were good men outside the ring.
    But Liston, young Foreman, and Tyson, have a real quick apology, because if you don't, something real bad may happen to you.

    The wrong answers: John L Sullivan, Jack Johnson, Sonny Liston, 70's Foreman, Larry Holmes, Mike Tyson, Riddick Bowe, Michael Moorer, Shannon Briggs and MAYBE Rocky Marciano, Vitali Klitschko and Tyson Fury depending on their moods.

    For some reason I think Muhammad Ali and Wladimir Klitschko would be more tolerant than most. Probably because they would have the brains to realize it was an accident

    Larry may or may not hit you.

    But watch out for that dropkick.
