    Bernard could never out perform Don Cockell.

    Perhaps he could but i'm pretty sure he wouldn't outperform jersey joe.

    I'm also pretty sure that past prime charles can out perform past prime hopkins.

    Are you sure either of those guys are slick enough?

    I'm not sure who they are exactly, but with names like that, I'm guessing "Jersey Joe" is not very slick, more like a saloon owning Bon Vivant, perhaps with a good left hook. And Ezzard? Mormons don't make good boxers.

    Going beyond the usual contrary posting and turning into a troll?

    Mister Charles sounds like a plantation owner in Alabama circa 1850.

    As in...

    " Escape ??? Why we wanna go a runnin' for ?

    Mista Charles treats us real good on this here plantation !"



    They never mentioned how well he boxed.

    Can't a man enjoy his strong waters?

    Seriously, I think we've run this one into the ground.

    For the record, Dempsey and Marciano beat the ever-loving crap out of Hopkins.

    I liked your thread though.

    Some on there were exposed as wits extraordinaire.

    And some were, well... just exposed.:yep

    I'd easily take Marciano (and Dempsey) to KO B-Hop.
