Lewis v Jeffries?

seriously? Lennox whenever he wants

 

He has no chance

No chance that he's not going to brutally ko Jeffries, at least.

 

I'd like to see someone actually put forth an elaborate argument for Jeffries winning this fight for a change. But the best I'll get is probably Perry telling me I don't know anything about boxing.

 

Any semi decent amateur today beats Jeffries you spastic

 

I think you misread my post. I knew I shouldn't have had so many double negativesatsch

 

First you have to define Jeffries, which is a good deal harder than defining Lewis.

It would be much easier to construct a case for an open verdict, than a case saying that Jeffries should be installed as favourite.

The best that you could manage would be to say that Jeffries was a 220lb man, who circumstantial evidence suggested to be exceptionally fast for his size, with good power refinements.

While this is enough to say that he could beat Lewis, it is not really enough to say that he would beat Lewis.

 

LL finishes JJ off before round 8.

 

Jeffries Power and Endurance nowdays would
look like a future athlete.
And with modern Boxing skills he would destroy any HW around today
easy in under 5 Rounds.

You even know who Jeffries is? Thats the strongest
Boxer in History , even stronger than Foreman moron.

That guy drinks 2 liters of blood an stil standing and gives a ****
and these fa-gots today cant even run 500meters or risk
anything in the ring.

Jeffries was a real Warrior and his time was Crazy , today
times are like Disney Land.

 

To so underrate such a great athlete and fighter is crazy. Jeffries rose in an era where one had to be the toughest of the toughest to get to the top. He would be a monster in any era.

 

Lewis, of course.

Jeffries struggled vs Corbett and Choinsky, how do you see him beating giant like Lennox?

 

He was rated very highly for many decades for a reason. As was/is Johnson, Dempsey, Louis, Marciano, Ali etc. Jeffries just because he was Jeffries was not an exception to this ATG list How do you determine all time greatness?

ATG qualities.....will to win, courage, durability, the ability to take great punishment and not quit, the ability to punch hard, cleverness.

We can argue whether one ATG would beat another for sure BUT we SHOULD NOT erase many many years of boxing trainers, fighters and historians that considered Jeffries an ATG. Just looking back on records and then believing one finds fault is not justification to erase known history. This includes any fighter not just Jeffries.

 

Qualities that will lose him a fight vs any top ten HW today:
left hand down by waist making him susceptible to over hand right, squared up stance with right hand waving in the wind such that anyone with a decent jab would bust his face open, bigger/stronger HW's walking through any of his punches (see Jack Johnson fight), slow punches and old time UFC style grab and hold type style very easy to defeat by a modern boxer with better movement and quicker punching ability.

That's just a start.
