H2H "era rumble" 60s-75 vs 00s-15s

10 men from each 15 year period (I centered it around the best years of Ali to capture the "golden era" of HW boxing) now if you think my list doesn't best represent the 15 year pieces feel free to add / retract certain fighters you feel more suitable - I wanted to have a nice mix from the 60s / best of the 70s and good overlap for the 2000s.

Your job as a match maker is to give your "side" the best shot of coming away with more wins.

So say as a small scale example

Patterson vs Lewis
Frazier vs Sanders
Liston vs Byrd

You could count this as 2-1 etc whatever its just IYO or just vote on which era is H2H stronger in the polls.


"Golden era" team
Muhammad Ali
Joe Frazier
Sonny Liston
George Foreman
Ken Norton
Ron Lyle
Gerry Quarry
Clevland Williams ( Or Patterson?)
Oscar Bonavena

"The Dark Ages"
Lennox Lewis
Vitali Klitschko
Wladmir Klitschko
Alexander Povetkin
Chris Byrd
Corrie Sanders
Tyson Fury
David Haye
David Tua
John Ruiz (Or should it be "Big" James?)

 

They lack the functional strength to lift it.

 

Me picks for the 2000s era

Wlad vs Ali
Lennox vs Liston
Sanders vs Frazier
Tua vs Norton
Toney vs Foreman
Byrd vs Lyle
Fury vs Quarry
Ruiz vs Ellis
Haye vs Williams
Povetkin vs Bonavena

8-2 or 9-1 with good odds for 10-0 (Ellis and Williams could score the W)

 

Naw

 

He was there till 2003 and had his debatably biggest win, Lennox stays.

 

You can use Young can't believe I forgot about my uncle.

 

I don't care it's my thread, 1960 wasn't the start of the Ali era either it's good overlap to include more fighters Prime Liston, Lewis etc.

 

I already explained this in the last post ffs lol.

 

Too bad comrade though I agree with you.
