    He'd have almost no chance of sweeping.

    Ezzard Charles is the greatest LHW ever IMO. I think he may lose a couple of these, that's a tough gambit to run undefeated. I think he has the most trouble against Tarver and Spinks (especially Spinks which I think may be 51/49 in favor of Charles). I'd still favor him against everyone

    I think Charles would beat most. I’d make Spinks a favorite over all mentioned
