    Simply put, who would win in a one night tournament between the best of Futch's camp and the best or Steward's camp at Heavyweight?
    Whoever wins the most matches, wins altogether. No weird point bull****.
    All fighters will be coming in in their absolute prime.
    Larry Holmes Vs Wladimir Klitschko
    Riddick Bowe Vs Lennox Lewis
    Joe Frazier Vs Evander Holyfield
    Ken Norton Vs Michael Moorer

    No disrespect to Futch at all, Manny inherited some amazing talent.

    Futch all the way down the line in those matchups. Steward had great talent, but, Futch was a better trainer. And, only Lewis has a decent chance of keeping it from being 0-4.

    I think some of these fights could go either way, but for the most part, I'd bet on the encounters ending like this:
    Holmes
    Lewis
    Holyfield
    Moorer

    Holmes & Frazier are definitely winning their matches. Bowe & Norton are either slight favourites or underdogs in theirs.

    Futch might win all four, but takes home no fewer than two wins. Steward’s men manage a draw or worse.

    I see Steward winning at worst 2 out of 4, with Wlad & Lennox winning their fights. I make Holy the favorite over Frazier, but can envision a scenario w/ Frazier winning, & I think Norton-Moorer is pick 'em.
