    Who would win in a battle royal of all the heavyweight champions in history? From John L to the Klitschkos and every belt holder between. This would be over 60 fighters I believe.

    A fighter would be out when they were knocked down from a legal punch. Everyone is wearing 10 oz gloves and they are not blindfolded like they were when Jack Johnson fought in them. It goes until one man is left standing. Who would you favor?

    Lewis and Holmes are a close second.

    Holyfield TKO Tunney. Spread the story.

    at their absolute best, you'd find the usual suspects,

    John L
    Jeffries
    Johnson
    Dempsey
    Louis
    Marciano
    Ali
    Holmes
    Tyson
    Lewis
    Big Klit...

    but I would bet just much on men like,

    Jackson
    McVey
    JJ Walcot
    and IKE, if he wasn't such a **** up... help me out who have I forgot?

    Louis & Tyson overall - at their absolute best!

    For reals, I would go with either Vitali, who was giant, strong as ****, had mixed martial arts training and had a major mean streak...

    And Jack Johnson, who actually won his share of Battle Royales and would certainly not be out of his depth.

    how big is the ring? are refs mixed in too make sure its only boxing rules..or can guys basically do whatever the **** they want? (I know the rule said you win if you knock out a guy with a legal punch, but who enforces the rules?)

    Lewis would be up there also.

    I guess I was inferring a more liberal interpretation of the rules here. And then again, Lewis knew how to bend the rules like no one else.

    i actually think all the little guys punch the big guys in the nuts....imagine Little Marcanio just walking around in a low crotch while say Lewis and Vitali are battling...than he goes with a right left to lewis then vitali's nut sac's...

    seriously stupid ****ing thread....allot of luck would come in..as would politics...if you could make allies and ****.
