    What are some of the most lopsided mismatches you can think of on an even playing field?
    Ex. David Price vs David Tua & Amir Khan vs Aaron Pryor. Bonus points for not mentioning any obvious winners like Muhammad Ali, Sugar Ray Leonard etc.

    this doesn't make any sense; so you're talking about showcase fights? where the designated prospect beats up a tomato can?

    Larry Holmes vs Bermane Stiverne.

    The best jab ever, vs the guy that thinks it's mandatory to walk into each and every thrown one.

    Chisora would smash Sony Liston.
    40-50lbs weight advantage, Liston would stand no chance on the inside with his long arms, Chisora would decimate him on the inside.

    People need to get the idea that heavyweights of old would beat the current crop, the difference in size is too much in most cases. Heavyweights back then were light heavyweights - cruiserweight by today's standards
