Louis is the only one I'd bet on there to have a chance against a peak Mercer due to his amazing jab. Otherwise, I think Ray is a hard man to get...
He was a real big puncher, but real inconsistent. Consider him a level lower than Earnie Shavers.
Seamus is always trolling and always not trolling. It's very Crabtree of him.
Let's not forget that Mercer's punch was quite a lot better than just a "bit" strong, too. Bobby Czyz, who got his ass whooped by Holyfield and...
Crazy to think that Patterson hit his peak in his thirties and was able to last so long in the division with the same style. Not to mention that...

He had a better chin, but you can make arguments on either side about both men's left hands, as well as both men's strength, but speed, footwork,...
Man would this be a fight! Hipp had a pretty underrated punch- He was able to cleanly knock out Ribalta in 2 when the only other men who could do...

Let's put this a different way. Would Roberto Duran at Lightweight beat Marciano?
Tyson didn't have long enough arms, and didn't compete with a style to work towards and around using the smash.
