    Nobody has any input on what would be a guaranteed war?

    Lyle would beat both Henry and Bert Cooper although the Bert fight would be fun to watch and Bert could always stop him since he had huge power but I'd still favour Ron.

    Ron Lyle would have beheaded Bert Cooper with the same kind of right hand bomb that destroyed Earnie Shavers.

    It's worth saying that Cooper nearly took out an unbeaten Holyfield who is much harder to hurt than Ron Lyle. I wouldn't count him out assuming it's Cooper at his best.

    Sorry for not being more clear. Bert Cooper and Ron Lyle in their primes.

    A little harsh no? Bert might not have been great, but surely he would have lasted longer than this...

    Lyle destroys Henry and the Cooper fight would be fun as hell. Id favor Lyle but anyone who counts out the Cooper who went to war with Holyfield and Mercer is really selling him far short. When Cooper was off drugs and well trained he was going to be a tough nut to crack for just about anyone.
