    I like this idea. Two guys with more potential than they tended to live up to, put in an era where they'd fight 4-6x a year and be forced to stay in shape and serious.

    They'd both end up as considerably better fighters than they were. They'd probably both hold a title at some point. We'd know both of their names for sure.

    How is Mercer going to get his mitts on it? Surely not by beating Louis…

    So would Witherspoon take it off Louis?

    Depends on what exact year they fight tbh. After 1942 Mercer has a chance
