    Eh, general super sized boxers I guess. Bowe, Buster Douglas, Lennox Lewis, Wlad and Vitali...

    I would pick all of the above to knock him out. Lewis and Wlad perhaps in one round if they were aggressive.

    Sonny's jab Guest

    He'd beat a lot of those guys who go 6'4 and 220-245

    In my opinion.

    He was giving Muhammad Ali a pretty decent fight in 1972, until Ali really started to crank it up.
    But most heavyweights that size aren't capable of cranking it up like Ali could.

    All except Douglas would beat him consistently
