    You really dropped the ball this time, didn’t you? Here you have the potential for 5 separate high quality threads, but you will only get attention for having made 1. I am very disappointed in you to say the least! You are better than this!

    At his best he should be favoured over all

    Actually I quite like the idea of Jones facing these men in a gauntlet-like fashion.

    He probably catches a loss somewhere. Yvon has the tools to give him a very rough time

    I wonder if his right cross can spark RJJ?

    I'd only be confident of him beating Quarry and Scott, he should beat Durrell. Johnson? 50/50, he loses to Eddie, a focused Eddie

    Yeah Eddie was good. Spinks battered him but they say he was on the slide by that time.

    In late 1977, Victor Galindez,defeated Eddie by a close majority decision, in Italy, to retain his title.

    Do some research. Mustafa wasn't on the slide but had to lose 27 pounds in two months after fighting at heavyweight. There was a late weigh and he had to lose 1 3/4 pounds. He struggled badly to make the weight. He had the better of things for some rounds before tiring. He also had trouble with a badly swollen eye quite likely courtesy of a foul.
