    Indeed,

    Big George got schooled, when his people made the mistake of placing him in the ring with the almighty wepner in only his 4th pro bout... Prior to facing Cooper, he was lucky that Bert had been fed a kilo of cocaine the night before, and had been partying all evening, or George surely would have had his grave dug for him...

    I think that a cuts stoppage would be the most likley scenario.

    Galento was prone to cuts and nearly all of his stoppage losses come via this route.

    Holyfield could beat Galento by countering him all night. Tony would throw those wild swings, leaving himself wide open for counters. Holyfield feasts on hitting opponents when they are off balance. Holyfield wins by TKO in the middle rounds.

    :lol:

    Can your precious Galento beat Prime Willie Meehan over 4 rounds?

    I think not.

    Meehan is unbeatable in 4 round fights.

    :lol:

    I think Galento would knock him out in the dying seconds of the 4th round !

    But no one else could. So, yes Meehan is very almost unbeatable in 4 round fights. :D
