    :lol:

    G'day mate :good

    Jorge would push both Ward and Froch's **** in, no question imo.

    He'd run through Dawson no probs too.

    Well he was bloody strong as well as skilled so I'm not sure how Ward would stifle him, but I'd hesitate to pick.

    But based on the Conteh and Foster fights (only seen a bit of the last Galindez fight) I'll agree on Froch and Dawson wholeheartedly.

    You could probably throw Antonio Tarver in that mix as well. I'm not so sold on that guy and Jorge Ahumada would never be an easy night's work or even an easy round's work for Tarver. He'd be digging deep very early in that bout and it would be interesting to see just how big of a toll he'd have to pay. I tend to think he'd be in the Dawson shoes and from rounds 5 onwards would be physically demanding, to say the least.

    Ahumada was a fine fighter, and would be too much for the lightheavies today...his only misfortune was being around when Galindez was in charge.

    :good.

    The fight isn't seen by enough people and I think this affects a lot of peoples view of Marcel because for all intents and purposes he unified the division and that holds a lot of clout with a lot of people, then add to that he beat an ATG and retired on top.
