    He would get killed. But he wouldn't be a HW, he would be a CW nowadays.

    ooh right ok. Valuev, Vitali and Wlad are indeed very fast :thumbsup

    I said he lost to Ross Puritty. But never said it was a title defence or even a title fight. And I wasnt calling Wlad a bum, I was merely stating that every HW is open to being knocked out when not in their prime due to the nature of the sport

    I only brought up the Puritty fight as someone said Jack Johnson, at 37 and having been a pro for 14 years already, was in his prime against Jess Willard

    **** right off back in the classic section with your ******ed bull****.

    No matter how **** you may think some of the guys in the current top10 rankings are they're still light years ahead anything Jack Johnson ever saw.

    Do you have eyes to see, or you're ******ed enough so that i need to go on and make an expert analysis about the fights presented on the video above?

    AS i said no matter how **** you may think the Adameks, Povetkins, Pulevs are,( which i see that you don't hold in high regards since you think some dinosaur from 100 years ago has a chance to beat them) they're still 100% superior to anything Jack Johnson has ever fought and i have videos to back up my statement.

    Jack Johnson's style would be absolutely obsolete, and if he thinks that an 160lbs Choynski or Ketchel hit hard then he would be in for a very big surprise even against pillow handed boxers like Adamek.

    It's easy to look technically brililant when you fight full time blacksmiths who can't even trow a punch without falling flat on their face.

    He sure did a good job of fightin guys like that after he becamse the HW champ.

    And when did he fight those guys?

    1909? :lol:

    Dude couldn't even hang with an old B-Hop.

    He'd struggle with a current RJJ.

    Jack's prime was during the triassic period.

    He wouldn't be doing **** to any current journeyman.

    You keep saying this, but it doesnt make it true! You honestly believe Povetkin is better than Sam Langford, Jeanette, Fitzsimmons, Phili Jack and Ketchel?

    Obviously you seem like massively clued up on historical boxing, so you will know that Jack Johnson never really 'went for it' in the ring. He was more than happy hurting guys and letting them recover rather than finishing them off! Like it or not, he was a master of defence. What makes you think Povetkin's limit onslaught would get to him?

    Not only he ducked the top black fighters in his title reign, he also ducked the best white hw who previously Ko'ed him in a sparring session.

    He fought a 6 year old retired Jeffries and a bunch of 5ft.6 midleweights....hell he couldn't even beat some of them :rofl.

    Yet the same guy is considered a top10 ATG heavyweight and top5 H2H.

    Probably cause Johnson is most known for beating white guys, so they just assume he could come in and beat those two white guys that rule the division now.

    Racism knows know bounds.

    Was that his fought? Jeffries didnt want nothing to do with Johnson because he was black. Jack was pushing for the fight earlier!!!!!
