    Wlad being all wrong for Byrd is what first jumped to mind.

    Wlad is faster and is a harder hitter.
    Lewis was more accurate better combinations, infight ability.

    Wlad is stronger physically, Lewis got a better chin.
    But they can both put each other down with every hit that lands, though Wlad has shown to always stand up.
    A left hook will surely put Lewis down for long.

    Two counter punchers...
    Haye might be able to throw the stronger punches but he also throws himself off balance in process and I don't see his suspect chin being able to last long when he gets countered in return.
    frank Bruno was able to whuzz Tyson in round 1, maybe if Haye gets the first strong counter shot he can stun Tyson or drop him.

    But that's just a puncher's chance.

    Broner-Duran was worse. Like, shouldn't be imaginarily sanctioned.

    :-:)lol:

    Yall are so messed up. I do say apart from Ward, Donaire, and Mares this era has no promise but damn.

    :lol:

    But on a serious note for Leonard to dig deep down and beat him is stuff only legends are made of. Those bodyshots he did made me cringe in pain.

    Most of these named are mismatches due to class, not styles

    Mike Tyson-Joe Frazier. I just see it going bad for Joe and him getting taken out early.

    Marciano vs anyone.. No one could match his will, heart, power and chin. He wanted it more. UNstoppable

    Amir Khan vs David Tua? What would happen if Tua's left hook lands on Khan's chin?

    Jkjk lol but in all seriousness I think Sergio Martinez would be a really hard style for Floyd, Floyd has always had trouble with southpaws and Sergio is the deadliest southpaw in the world atm.

    malignaggi vs margarito would be hell for paulie

    leagues above him skill wise but absolutely nothing to back up margo

    the saddest part about it is that malignaggi is a warrior and wouldn't give up easily so it could be a prolonged walk and beat down
