    James Broad couldn't even wipe his own ass let alone any heavyweight division, except maybe at the buffet table.

    Thanks for the threadcromancy; there was a real danger that this joke-thread would have gone without your opinion, ThinBlack.

    I think Broad would be ranked like #15 in the world in 2020.

    Yeah, he'd be knocking on the door of the top 10 in this era.

    I've been watching a bunch of his fights lately. He was a giant plodding HW... I'm not sure if there is any era that he would've succeeded in... He could probably beat a few guys like Jess Willard and maybe Primo Carnera.

    I agree with you, if fighters like T.Witherspoon, G.Page, T.Tubbs , was consistent with their training, or fighters like C.Williams , P.Thomas, M.Dokes, T.Tucker stayed away from the nose candy theirs no telling what they could've accomplished. All of them were very talented, much better than what's running around the last 10-15 yrs winning Heavyweights Championships .
