    He wouldn't KO Ray Mercer.

    In fact, the Ray Mercer that turned up against Lennox would give him all he could handle... and possibly more...

    He would beat Coetzer and WIlliams but get ruined by the rest of the lot.

    Tarver is a good shout. It is amazing how similar they are in some ways. Can't completely put a finger on it, but there it is.

    Marciano was not some bum and is a LOT of levels over most of these guys. A great little man will beat a decent big man.

    He wasn't "some" bum. He was a great bum.

    I do believe he would beat Jeremy Williams.

    Maybe that 60 year old was better than 30 year old Larry Holmes?? Ever thought of that
