    It is not farfetched to see him beating any of them, but I suspect that he wouldn't in most cases.

    LaStarza's prime is 1953 so:

    I fancy Henry to have been somewhat better, but he was on the slide by LaStarza's prime, so probably loses.

    Baker probably gets LaStarza on the slide.

    Moore would have outclassed him at any point.

    I don't think that there is any meaningful overlap with Walcott.

    Valdez either gets him on the slide, or loses when he is green himself.

    He might get past Charles, depending on how and when.

    I can't see myself favouring him over anybody, except perhaps Baker.
