GGG would probably be the favorite here. But I will go with Froch. Froch is underrated both in terms of boxing ability and ring IQ, and he has the...
Floyd's hand/foot speed along with his superb punching power would be too much for an aging Marciano. Patterson by TKO12.

1. Calzaghe 2. Ward 3. Jones This top 3 is interchangeable for me. I can see a case for either of these three being the GOAT SMW. The next two is...
Carl Froch.
I will probably be in the minority. But I am taking Froch by close but clear decision. Froch has a considerable size advantage (about 3 inches in...
I do not see any of Rocky's opponents having an edge against (prime) Patterson. Given that Rocky's career was less than 10 years, Patterson could...
