    Geordie Glenn, former cruiser vs Fitz , Middle, lightheavy and heavy weight champ. Can the old timer hammer Glenn or does the modern day guy get the win,?

    I have to go with Bob Fitzsimmons. He was one of the greatest ring genius's of all time. He could fight at any weight, wasn't intimidated of size, had loads of power and was just a brilliant fighter. Glen McCory had a boxing career that was less than imaginative.

    McCrory was beaten in 3 rounds by Lampkin.

    Fitzsimmons would need to come in a bit heavier than he was used to but anywhere over 175 and he should win this.

    Strictly speaking McCrory isn't a Geordie, it doesn't matter anyway, Fitz ko's him.

    To be a Geordie you've gotta be from Newcastle. He's from Durham.
