    Chuvalo was outboxed by a Jones sized fighter in Floyd Patterson. Jones is arguably in the same zip code as Patterson when it comes to sheer speed and skill. Could he pull off a win against the Big Canadian?

    Patterson would KO RJJ at Heavyweight he wasn't as good as Patterson H2H at Heavyweight.

    As for this fight i think RJJ could befuddle Chuvalo early on but eventually Chuvalo catches up to him and stops RJJ. Chuvalo stopped Doug Jones, Jerry Quarry. Quarry had a solid chin and it only took one shot from Chuavlo to turn that fight around. And if Chuavlo can land on a prime Ali he can certainly land on RJJ at Heavyweight.

    Chuavlo by KO between 8-9 rounds.

    Sure, he may have stopped Quarry but he also failed to stop Patterson.
