    Two Ton Tony has been dead for over 30 years, so I reckon it is a pick'em.

    No doubt all time glutton. If he pulls a willie pep and step on your toes you'll dance like Graziano for the rest of your life.

    Not to mention that dancing around BB takes a LOT of energy.

    Butterbean vs:

    1. Ali
    2. Frazier
    3. Foreman
    4. Tyson


    Ali - Ali would have a very difficult time with BB. Ali would dance with his hands down by his sides. This would make his midsection a target for BB.
    Ali would be denied his favorite tactic of holding behind the neck. BB has no neck. Ali would be reduced to trying to hold his bald head. It would be too slick to hold on to with leather gloves.

    Butterbean by late round TKO or UD.


    2. Frazier- Frazier is susceptible to early round knockout, as proved in his first Foreman fight.
    That is BB's specialty.
    Butterbean by 3rd round KO.


    3. Foreman - Foreman is tall. Butterbean is short and low to the ground- like a hog. Foreman would find himself swinging downward at BB's head, like trying to hit a golf ball. Such punches would not be effective. BB would rope-a-canvas Foreman. Foreman would punch himself out and BB would move in for the kill.

    Butterbean by KO- 8th round


    4. Tyson- Butterbean's ears do not protrude. Tyson couldn't get his teeth on them. Tyson would implode with frustration.

    Tyson quits on his stool- mid rounds.
