Favored over Robinson?

50-50 shot mate

 

Roy Jones Jr, Bernard Hopkins, Marvin Hagler, Carlos Monzon, Mike McCallum

 

Me picking Monzon to bear SRR means i picked good white guy over good black guy.:shock:

 

Roy Jones @ 168 would whup Robby. :bbb

 

I think at 175 he does even better.

 

@175 Roy puts on a clinic And KO's Sugar Rammond. :bbb

 

I don't know if Burley should be favored because P4P and H2H differ one from the other . But I do believe that Burley would have at least lasted the distance against him win or lose , and if he hurt Archie Moore that bad he might have very well hurt Robinson worse than he ever was , although each to his own weight classes , Robinson was way tougher than Moore ever was.
Don't know much about Monzon , but Hopkins is irrelevant to boxing discussions because under any competent refereeing , he would have lost by DQ in most of his big fights and some of his lesser known fights.
RJJ would have avoided someone (and lesser fighters) like SRR while anywhere near SRR's (or whichever lesser (to a degree) fighter) prime .

If to force myself into imagining RJJ actually fighting SRR , then he might have had his shiny moments until eventually getting caught / worn . And it was the best scenario for RJJ .

RJJ avoided many of men in their prime / prime conditions , many of those whom he did actually fight are included .

I think someone like Michael Nunn is something SRR actually didn't fight anything similar to (with the probable exception of Joey Maxim , and Nunn was a better puncher than Maxim ) , and therefore no one here can have an opinion about it based on SRR's actual fights whether available on video or just available on paper.

Sam Langford was someone whom SRR would have avoided just like he did Burley and many others actually did avoid.
Langford would have actually had

Watching Ray ravage the taller Bobby Dykes on the inside with his surgically thudding right hand strikes to the ribs, then looking at how Tommy buckles when SRL goes to the body late, I'm not sure how well Hearns weathers Robby, whose hooks could be withering at close range on those unusual occasions he had a taller adversary. (Robinson-Dykes is really a fascinating study, because we can hear his shots connect, and this is a rare instance of him taking on somebody at once both taller and lighter than he.)

 

True but Dykes isnt half the boxer Hearns is and dosent poses the kind of power Hearns has to warn opponents off him.

 

SRR would punish Roy. He never had to avoid anyone with that kind of speed, even the MW version of Robinson would break him. He'd crack Hearns' chin as well, sadly. Hearns is probably the fighter physically the most like Robinson... But he's not as good inside, his stamina isn't quite good enough... I just see robinson killing him in a war.Wear him down with body punches and then go upstairs. Hagler i'm not quite sure about. I think it depends on what version of Marv shows up. I don't think he can win backfoot boxing, but if he comes out looking to trade maybe he could go toe-to-toe, his chin would help him a LOT here.

The guys who have the best chance are the crowders or the skilled outboxers. Monzon, Walker, Burley, Greb, Tiger, Cerdan etc etc

 

I agree Swarmer.......Walker is a very good choice man !
