Bruno was regarded as a bit of a joke at the time anyway, especially stateside, so he was hardly a name that would have boosted Foreman's...
Foreman would knock Bruno out in 2 or 3 rounds. It would be like the beginning of the Stewart fight but Bruno didn't have the recuperative powers...
Wilder should win. Mercer was a tough fighter but he's become overrated.
So is Canelo elite or not ?
Parker had to beat Ruiz to become WBO champion though. I'd also expect Parker to beat Morrison. Morrison could have defeated Martin or Glazkov...
Tyson did alright in the boxing ring. He lost to Douglas, but so what ? He bounced back. He lost to Holyfield but Holyfield was a great fighter....
Foreman in his prime was open and held his head up straight and was a bit easy to hit with straight punches. Louis would have to box him really...
I think it's funny that people want to say "Johansson was 1-2 against Patterson" as if that's some sort of knock on him. That's a prime...
It's not a blueprint. I was just pointing out that "Liston at the end of 1958" could be extended 10 rounds and get hit by someone "small" and...

Bruno was the heavier hitter but Nielsen maybe took a punch a bit better. Having said that Nielsen ran out of gas Bruno-style against the ordinary...
Still, Johansson would be a step up. Machen went in 1 round, Patterson went in 3. These are the kinds of stats you like. This is the version of...
I'm not even sure why "Mercer" comes up at a huge name on Holmes's resume in many people's minds. Sure, it was a good win for an OLD man, it was...
Sure, but Holyfield was past it. He struggled with Ruiz in his very next fight. In the fight before facing Lewis, he looked average against the...
Dempsey, I don't think so. Lewis ? No, I think his best wins are the two decisions against a quite worn-out Holyfield. We can argue that version...
