    Okay, you're eyes, which can transform into a tape measure as they stand in the ring. Sure, sure. Keep fudging things they way you " see " fit.

    Your being generous
    Dont see Alvarez or Jacob's beating Hank. Hank was a hell ov a fighter.

    That is the current Ring top ten.

    "Mims was a 5'7" middleweight with just 13 Ko's in 103 fights, with 28 losses and six draws. He would not be a factor today. For those tired of me listing a dozen of journeyman a fighter lost to, just watch the film om Mims. Jacobs would have a relatively easy night.

    As for the middle weight division, they are getting taller in general, and weigh more on fight night. The division also includes world competition these days
    ."

    The underlined is your statement
    No answer as I expected.
    You fail to grasp that Hank fought everyone at middle and lhvy .Preserving an unbeaten record wasnt the criteria in the those days

    Want to speculate how many of these Jacobs beats?
    Joey Giardello
    Mauro Mina
    Bob Foster
    Dick Tiger
    Eddie Cotton
    Jimmy Ellis
    Chic Calderwood
    Harold Johnson
    Johnny Persol
    George Benton
    Jesse Bowdry
    3 of them were lhvy champs,4 were lhvy contenders 2 more were middle weight champs. Hank had 96 fights in 2 divisions Jacobs has had 36, he would give Jacobs hell!

    4th time asking. What is Hank's record vs top ten middles when they were ranked? I agree Hank had lots of chances, he's on the losing end vs the best, and beaten by many journeyman. No more ducks. I replied to you, your turn. If you are incapable of answering the question, just say so.

    Okay, Mims beat Benton once. I checked. Benton was not annually ranked in 1958 . He wasn't annually ranked in 1959 when the fight happened. Nor was Benton ranked in the 1960 annually. So my conclusion is this big win your trumpeting wasn't even vs a top ten opponent when the fight happened.

    If you want to compare Jacob's winning % in the top ten vs. Hank's or Mims, I think we know the answer.

    Henry Hank, skinny, no power, just ask some of the lightheavies he beat up, if they agree.

    Note to Mendoza - Billy Saunders was not an Olympic gold medallist, I remember he was kicked out for bad behaviour.

    Alvarez( Mr Twice a year) v Henry Hank, well if Hank could only dream of and realise the state of the art training camps that Mr Cosseted enjoys, my money would be on the man from Detroit.

    That's enough out of you. You keep saying Jacobs and Derev and the lot dont have losses, well thats because they havent fought anybody, and the ones he did he lost to. Peter Quillin give me a break. And some other stuff about Saunders being quick. I know hes quick. I watch these guys. Not as much as a diehard fan, but i do. Did you read somewhere that being quick and agile makes you a top 10 atg middleweight? Saunders isnt a proven great. And he hasnt even fought Golovkin.

    Thanks, good catch. I must have been thinking of James DeGale.

    Are you going to show us Hank's record vs Ring Magazine ranked top ten middle weight when he fought them or not? Enough time has passed.

    GGG on points for me, with the jab being the difference. It's a different GGG when he respects his opponent's power, and I don't think Tiger has that extra dimension to him to successfully adapt to GGG when he shifts styles.
