Good quality vid. Haven't seen it before. Love Walker but, bloody hell, look at the size of Max's shoulders... just too big a man, Thanks :)
I wouldn't pit Bjorg against Federer with a wooden racket. So, with a modern boxing apprenticeship for Max, I'll say 50:50. But, as a Brit, I...
I'll say Wlad keeps it long, and the ref stops the contrst around round 9, with Ruiz a bit too battered up. Wlad may have got Ruiz out of there...
He is exactly number 20 on my list :)
The business end of my list would currently look something like this: 1. Shavers 2. Foreman 3. Wilder 4. Baer 5. Tyson 6. Liston
A fair point. Although I'd consider Louis to still be a bit of a machine at a little over 200lb (having weighed in at 200).
The Ultimate Cruisers!!! 1. Louis 2. Holyfield 3. Johnson 4. Dempsey 5. Marciano 6. Tunney 7. Langford 8. Patterson 9. Walcott 10. Charles 11....
If I may piggyback on this thread, how realistic/ridiculous to you think my next four are??!! Just the order? Again, I think they're so close......
A particularly interesting thread to me, as I make my lists on 75% H2H and just 25% resume (so my lists are stupid, in most people's eyes!)....
Wish more people would consider the 'same day' vs 'day before' weights when making predictions/lists in Classic Forum. Game changers.
Dempsey Sullivan Liston Tyson Jeffries
Ali, Liston, Foreman, Holyfield.
Jack Johnson? I'll say: 1. Whitaker 2. Hearns 3. Johnson 4. Holmes But happy to see almost any order. All top 100 guys. Many, top 50.
