    You can't trade fights that never happened, against fights that did happen.

    Here's some facts for you.
    All those you mentioned were stopped by nobodies.
    Several like
    Clark 8-24-3 stopped 12 times
    Lodge 16-23 stopped16 times
    Baker 16-19-4 stopped 15 times
    Hansen 14-14-1 stopped 8 times
    Were dive artists.
    Bruno wasn't very good, but one thing he was ,was a heavy duty puncher ,none of them would go the distance with him.
    ps Shwake was 5'11 1/2"

    And he was dropped twice and stopped in 7 rds by 55 pounds lighter Bob Pastor who wasn't a puncher.

    Who's to say that Bob Pastor wouldn't have done the same to Lennox Lewis?

    Their respective records don't say it ,they shout it!
    Pastor was dropped twice and ko'd by a left to the body by174lbs Billy Conn.

    The Conn knockout was an outlier.
    Pastor survived a go around with Louis, faced a multitude of punchers like Nova, Toles, Thompson, Maurielo and Franklin, sometimes taking their best hits and they all failed to beat him.
    The second fight with Louis is a testament to Pastor's immense durability.

    He was stopped by a body punch from a light hitting Light heavyweight.
    Thompson,180lbs floored Pastor 6 times .Lennox would embalm him ,
    Nova floored him
    Pastor ran away from Louis all night."Bob's Bicycle Act" it was called.

    Why do you continually try and bait me?
    Don't you know I realise what you do?
