    Best Walcott fights the best Patterson. Who comes out on top. I really don't know who to favor. Walcott was arguably robbed vs Joe Louis (1947 fight). Patterson was in my opinion robbed against Quarry and Ellis. Patterson looked devastating in the rematch with Ingo and Walcott likewise produced a highlight reel KO vs Ezzard Charles.

    Walcott schooled Maxim and Maxim schooled Patterson, so that’s a foregone conclusion.

    I favour Walcott narrowly, he was slick, awkward and could punch a bit, he’d get Patterson’s respect unlike Ellis.

    Every Patterson thread is funny. What wouldn't be funny is seeing Walcott Bolivianize Floyd, although his flopping around vs Ingo and Liston are hilarious.

    Seeing a boxer Doing the chicken dance isn't funny? Like Valuev vs Haye, or Judah vs Tszyu (excuse the spelling)?
    Especially if it's a boxer you don't like.

    hopefully time stamped.

    Patterson by KO in 5. Overwhelming offense. If Old Joe couldn't handle that shoemaker from Brockton, he ain't taking none of this smoke.
