A better matchup would be a 1976 Ali vs !981 Cooney.
Interesting fight, I'll go with Cooney.
I just watched Leonard's fights with Norris and Camacho this past week. I couldn't stand Leonard back then so I was very satisfied watching both...
Cooney by UD. Bugner would feel that hook to the head and body, and run and clinch, losing all 10 rounds.
I think it would be a good fight. I lean towards Briggs by mid rounds ko, but it would be a war.
Holmes vs Foreman would be my number one choice, 2 others would be Holmes vs Liston and Lewis vs Liston.
McCall by ko. Replay of the Akinwande fight. Terrell doesn't have the power, and McCall is stronger and roughs him up stopping him in 8-9 rounds.
Terrible fight, I really wasn't too suprised, Wlad looked bad against the much smaller Jennings. Here he didn't have the height and reach that...
Jerome Artis beat SRL in the amateur ranks I believe, but was nothing more than a journeyman as a pro.
GGG easily.
Tommy would take Wlad seriously so he would be prepared, but I think it would be a replay of the Lewis vs Morrison fight. Wlad by tko in 5.
Because he was gay, if he was straight then he's ATG.:cool:
Sultan easily, I was never impressed by Botha.
I think of him kind of like Nino Benvenuti, Emile Griffith, Donald Curry. A great fighter, but not an ATG.
Leonard wasn't agressive and he beat Hagler. Hopkins was bigger, stronger, more powerful than Leonard and also reigned at lightheavyweight,.
