    Jerry quarry
    Buster mathis
    And last but not least Gene tunney

    How do you figure walcott would do against those opponents? All of them on their best day

    Think he wins two of three. Def beats Mathis and not sure of the other two...he was good enough to beat both of them but I’m sure he drops one

    I like him in all 3, his boxing against Marciano (way past prime) was beautiful and whilst I think Tunney could plan to beat him quite easily he wouldn't be able to execute the plan as he'd need. His footwork would comfortably allow him to beat the other too, he could punch hard enough to keep the 3 honest as well

    I favor him over all three, but Tunney would be a live dog
