70'S V 80'S Heavy Weight s ?

Norton ud
Quarry late tko or ud
Lyle by ko
Young decision
Shavers ko

 

Bruno.ko? Haha if there are a type of fighter that shavers would do great against it is bruno.shavers would brutalize him

 

Bruno would have quite a good chance vs Shavers. I'd hate to be betting on that one.

 

Dokes gave Holy problems, I think he might give Norton problems, I say a draw, they cancel out each other's best assets.

Williams did well against Holmes, but that was a stylistic matchup of jab vs jab, so I'll go Quarry.

Spinks Jinx. Only Tyson made him look bad.

Does Shavers tire or Bruno cave in? two flawed dudes here! Under 5 rounds its Shavers. Past five, Bruno

 

I would take all the 80's guys!

yes I know the 70's guys can't lose but.......

 

This is the way I see it too. The only one I would amend is the Quarry-Williams fight to a solid stoppage win for Quarry.

 

Any heavyweight from the 70s era is indestructible. Wepner crushes AJ and Wilder in the same night

 

Norton UD
Williams TKO on cuts
Spinks UD
Douglas UD
Whoever lands the big one first

 

You

You believe that Spinks would KO Lyle in 6? I don't see it, Spinks power would have had to transfer equivalently to heavyweight from light heavyweight

 

lmao

 

Ken Norton v Michael Dokes ?

Dokes has one chance, to come out banging like he did against Weaver in their first fight. He had actually filled out and started sitting down on his punches. After being considered feather fisted at one point he gained quite reasonable power. He was the fastest heavyweight at one point - for three rounds. Could he overwhelm Norton and force him into panic mode? I don't think he'd get Kenny out of there so Norton UD.

Carl Williams V Jerry Quarry ?

The tale of two possibilities. Does Williams keep Quarry at range enough to box his way to a decision? I don't think he does. Quarry by late stoppage or decision.

Ron Lyle V Michael Spinks ?

I think Spinks and his herky jerky style and skill would come thru to the tune of a decision win. He would have to fight the spoiling careful fight he did vs Holmes.

Jimmy Young V Buster Douglas ?

The Douglas jab and size would be pivotal here. Assuming he is in shape i would favor him to decision Jimmy over 10 or 12 but Jimmy might sneak home over 15 given Douglas' penchant for tiring.

Earnie Shavers V Frank Bruno ?

Pick'em. Can Bruno get thru a rough moment or two early?

 

Dokes may edge Kenny, but based on experience, I would say Norton edges Dokes on an MD, controversial.
Carl would dominate Jerry early, but based on that chin, Jerry would start clocking him around 4 o 5, and take him out with a perfectly timed hook in the 8th.
Ron would have Michael out of there by round 5. Too strong, and too powerfull
Young would edge Douglas in 15 rounds. It would be close, but ,again, Jimmy's experience would kick in.
Earnie would kayo Frank in the 9th, in a come from behind victory.
