    Heavy: Joe Louis vs Lennox or Holyfield or Bowe

    Joe Louis knocks out lennox, and beats Holy and Bowe on points.
    Roy Jones beats Conn and Lewis on points.
    Bernard Hopkins Beats Steele in a close fight, this one is tough to call.
    Felix Trinidad beats Ross, tito so strong at this weight, all though I went back and forth on this one!!
    Pernell Whitaker Crafty southpaw to much for Canz.
    Henry Armstrong easy win over Hamed!
    Panama Al Brown over Sahaprom.
    Benny Lynch over Pac or Arbachakov.

    Final Score

    Heavy: Joe Louis vs Lennox Lewis – 6-4
    Light Heavy: John Henry Lewis/ Billy Conn vs Roy Jones Jr – 1-8
    Middle: Freddie Steele/Mickey Walker vs Bernard Hopkins/Toney -1-8
    Welter: Barney Ross vs Whitaker/Trinidad 3-6
    Light: Tony Canzoneri vs De La Hoya/Whitaker 0-8
    Feather: Henry Armstrong vs Naseem Hamed 8-1
    Bantam: Panama Al Brown v Veeraprol Sahaprom 7-0
    Fly: Benny Lynch v Manny Pacquiao or Arbachakov 6-2


    30s – 4 90s -4 Draw
    Joe Louis pulls out a match tieing effort with the last two posters to send this one into overtime. This leaves the two second best heavys of the 30s and 90s to box off in the tie breaker.

    It is a tough one. The 30s have Schmelling, Sharkey, Canera, Baer or Braddock to chose from, while the 90s have Tyson, Holyfield and Bowe to choose. I think I would go with the counterpunching Max Schmelling, for the 30s – A fighter who took Joe Louis to school to square off against Evander Holyfield in what should be a pretty good fight.

    Joe Louis
    Roy Jones
    Freddie Steele (I don't think Hopkins deals with speed that well, and Steele's speed, power, and precision should get him a win on points IMO)
    Ross
    Whitaker
    Armstong
    Arbachakov
