    Not gonna lie I'd pick all of the classic guys, but Peter Lyle is a great slugfest I could see going both ways.
    Chuvalo and Norton both win pretty easily and Eilis would be too much for Adamek imo, given who he beat.
    Joe beats Vitali pretty easily imo, he was very good as ducking slow shots, or any shots, and Vitali had issues with Byrd's movement. Byrd had no offense compared to Frazier, Joe would rip that body and force a stoppage or win a wide UD.
