Floyd Patterson v. Buster Douglas

Slender i think you are mostly correct.

Except: a select few 190 lbers who were the best ever would beat all but the best 240ish lb. guys. though admittedly some 2nd tier guys like a Mercer might beat them too.

And Douglas was 231 vs. Tyson. though your general point is understood.

 

Yes, a hall-of-fame little guy beats a so-so big guy, but Buster Douglas beat MIKE TYSON. BTW I think Patterson was probably the best HVYT of the 1960s outside of Ali and Liston, better than, Quarry, Foley, Ellis, etc.

 

I like Douglas here , by late ko.

 

I think Patterson is super underrated H2H but Douglass on that night in Tokyo was a force to be reckoned with and one notable thing -- HUGE
