    Teleport the Livermore Larupper into today's boxing world, to go back, he must defeat the next series of opponents in single fights, both at their highest peak as a pugilist:

    Krzysztof Glowacki
    Michael Hunter
    Marco Huck
    Mairis Briedis
    Murat Gassiev
    Tony Bellew

    Does Max Baer succeed and go back? or does he get stranded in the future?

    I would give him a reasonable shot vs Huck and Bellew who have been KO'd before and are not that hard to hit flush

    The Max Baer who beat Max Schmeling could beat any of them. The Max Baer who lost to James J. Braddock could lose to any of them.

    I just realized Hunter was on the list he is probably 3rd most likely to lose to Baer

    I would favor the other guys to defeat Baer. Not much analysis for me to offer just my gut feeling on those fights

    Perfect way to sum it up…he was so bad w training and perfecting his craft but in the short time he did focus he went on a tear.

    Max Baer, if well trained, has reasonable odds vs any of them. I can also see him pulling a Ruiz on AJ.
