Buddy Baer had no jab, no footwork, no right hand, was slow, no movement and didn’t know how to use his reach and fight on the outside so my pick is Patterson by TKO But Baer has a punchers chance if he lands the left hook which is all he had and Patterson had a very suspect chin against punchers
Not really. He was 6’7 250lb yet couldn’t dominate a slew of contenders who weighed less than 200lb. Why? Because he was so limited other than his powerful left hook. He could punch though, hard. Watch film of buddy baer, you’ll come away less than impressed other than his ability to punch with his left hand
It's interesting that many would pick Max Baer to beat Floyd Patterson and give his younger, but larger brother less of a chance
