    Zelenoff. His name was Charlie Zelenoff, UBF champion.

    Yes, I'd demolish Burns. Assuming we'd be the age of 2023. I'm 72, he's 142.
    Plus I'd demand that he not wear those Corbett-like thongs. Too distracting.

    NO,

    but I knew lots of Street Fighters, who could have beaten many a top fighter at their respective weights, the Bigger Boys is not such an easy answer however, yes some tough Big Boys out there, but HWs and TOP Ones at that, even the ones who aren't necessarily 'street tough' can NEVER be ruled out, given that they are Big Strong Trained Fit men, surely their strength, fitness and endurance, might account for many a Big Boy on the Cobbles...

    now the Lenny McClean type is an all together different proposal for even the Top HWs.

    Despite my large size and probably strength advantages (added to a little experience training & sparring), Burns would glove-up and proceed to kick the living **** outta me.

    Yeah the interwebs (sic) are full of guys, often large & with some fight experience, who foolishly challenge experienced professionals & get at best only Humiliated.

    If it is submission wrestling, with no boxing or other strikes allowed, I think I have a good chance. Bring on The Little Giant of Hanover! If it is boxing my chances are not so good, but I would give it a go. GRRR!

    Of course I win. Tommy is dead. He forfeits. That is the only way.

    I could beat Dempsey too. He is dead so he forfeits. That is the only way.

    Right out the gate I would give Burns a 3 piece combo to the nuts to make sure he knows I mean buisness. Then immediately after I would bite his nose or ear which ever is closer to my mouth.
    My main goal would be to get disqualified in round 1 because I would put up the house for Burns to win via DQ so technically I win and win big.

    To be real if Tommy Burns was in his prime, I think he would beat all of us in our primes. You have to give him that at least. Yeah he may not beat Tyson or Lewis, but he could beat us.
