    Walcott was on his winning streak at this time while coming for Joe Louis. What if Lyle, Shavers and Mac Foster met Walcott during those years? Could he go 3-0?

    I’d pick Walcott to beat all of them, but Shavers would be dangerous early on.

    Yeah, if Shavers can explode a right on Walcott jaw, we would see a replay of the 1st Marciano fight
