Tommy Loughran vs. Bob Foster

Tommy Loughran, who was miles better than Pierre Fourie (who twice went 15 against Foster) would win a 15 round decision. Loughran would be one of the very few in history capable of doing this.

 

Foster was not in Loughran's league. Loughran on points, by a wide margin.

 

BIG DEE HERE= Loughran by 15 rd dec. But Bob Foster always has the chance of nailing Tommy but unlikely.

 

Foster by KO.

 

Foster KO4

 

Loughran Jabs his was to a dec win ,but skinny Bob is allways dangerous.

 

Hard one to call. Foster is better offensively, Loughran is better defensively. Knowing my tastes, I'd probably have Loughan winning, but by the same token I can see many picking Foster off of the kind of fight that I envision them having.

 

loughran was very unimpressive to me on film. he was a bit of a poor mans gene tunney, but with one arm. foster would absolutley slaughter him in 2-3 rounds. I think mauro mina and eddie cotton were better than loughran. watch the film if you don't believe me.

 

:rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl u think Bob would have an easy time with a fast moving boxer, just like he always did

 

What fast boxers do you have in mind mate? Obviously not Ali (Nobody could be comparing Bob out of his element at Heavyweight vs the consensus greatest fighter ever there in Ali to Loughran) or any other heavyweight as this fight will be at 175, where Bob has some supreme physical assets not the least his reach and jab. I think peak Foster at 175 has some really good skills and weapons to counter the slick mover. His reach, speed, long jab and ever present power danger makes him especially dangerous to boxers IMO. 15 rounds is a long time and he certainly carries his power into the late rounds.

 

What film have you seen of him?

 

Do you think Mina and Cotton could beat Sharkey ,Baer,and Braddock Suzie?
How about close fights with Greb ,Tunney ,Delaney.Lomski.?

 

I agree, besides eddie cotton was a fast boxer, so was allen thomas, a dangerous young contender.


speaking of the ali fight, foster was the first to cut ali. busted him up something horribly with that jab. he would do the same to tommy.
