    Tommy Burns whoops me because he's an actual fighter. Now if grappling and kicks in the nuts are allowed then my chances go up by at least 2%

    Damn he only weighed 168lb? 5'7? He still wins but there's an outside chance I won't be completely embarrassed :deal:

    Burns didn't even look that bad, he'd whip my ass

    I would box jab, spin him around so that his underpants begin to fall off, alarming the fans, then I would rub his head like The Three Stooges would, then make a wish on his head, and say On Guard. Ha Ha.

    There was a poster on here who said he could beat Dempsey or other old timers. I forget who it was.

    Oh sure, I could defeat Tommy Burns, no problem. At checkers. He's just a little fellow. Being about 5 inches taller, I would have a much better overview of the checker board.

    Well let’s just say I think if I was in my prime and the fight was today, 1950s rules, in Tommy’s current physical condition, I’d probably win a split decision…!

    I think whoever is the current UK Southern Area Minimum weight champ would beat me in about 5 seconds.
