Patterson would pick Tunney apart with hand speed and power. If Dempsey could find the shot on Tunney, Patterson would find it several times over....
Tom Cribb vs. Jem Belcher, 44 rounds, 1807. Sounds like a spectacle. Jack Johnson vs. Joe Choynski, the fight that taught Jack Johnson the sweet...
Patterson would win unless he got hit with a long count punch. The boxing ability and hand speed would be miles ahead of any natural heavyweight...
Jack Johnson wrestles, stifles, stuffs and shuts Dempsey down. I don't think Dempsey would find the space or the angle he needed to land a wide...
All are great wins. Toney actually fought back well and landed a lot more punches on Jones than I remembered. Really nice fight. With Hopkins,...
I'm too ignorant to fully comment but Lloyd strikes me as a more complete fighter (obviously) but Curry wasn't right for that fight whereas...

Allen isn't world level, sadly and he doesn't need this fight. I don't want to see it. He was so outmatched vs. Hrgović that it really soured me...
I think actually Marciano has a better chance to beat the inconsistent Mercer than Morrison, who I feel would have way too much offense for...
on most nights Hearns has 2 wins and loses to Hagler. 2-1 Hagler could drop one to any of the 3 but I think he's likely to go 3-0 Leonard would...

Depends on who's throwing it. I think the right hand has produced more KOs by volume since most people are better at throwing it and it's a hard...
You are certainly right, I assert that Cooney and Franzese talked via phone when "direct" information could technically be any written or verbal...
Why is a professional boxer on the phone with a mobster? Why is he telling him he (THINKS HE) will lose the fight? Sounds legit to me. We should...
