    The Willard of 1915 fights the Lewis of 1997. Does Willard land a powerful right hand that detonates on the Lewis chin?

    Mismatch, Willard outclasses this palooka. Did Lewis even know what a jab was?

    Lewis by knockout very early on, the difference in athleticism and skill is too much of an obstacle for Willard to overcome...

    They ran this as a simulation through a highly advanced AI boxing program.

    They wanted a RBR type deal.

    This is the result it spat out:

    Lewis gets in early with the jab.
    He softens him up and brutally stops him in 2

    Very obvious that with everything posted on this forum you feigning offence is playing the man & not the ball.

    Replay of Lewis vs Golota and they better have an ambulance and priest ringside for Jess.

    Cry harder.

    Back on point for those who are interested in the thread & not stalking, Lewis negotiates Willard cautiously but easily after an early attempt, “Michael Grant” him falls short.

    Why won't Lewis need a priest?
