    Cute, I been a called a troll. My life is over now. A slow witted person on a boxing site who thinks a 5'7 170 pound guy who turned pro in 1900 could beat a 6'6 220 pound guy. But yeah I am a troll says the guy who IQ has be under 50.

    I see Langford thoroughly dominating and knocking Wilder out, so long as he stays away from that right hand.

    Wilder doesn't have the skills necessary in order to beat Langford, who's more than proven that size isn't enough to beat him. It was usually a combination of size and skill.

    Sam Langford has an equal reach and slightly less height than James Toney, who himself fought successfully at heavyweight snd stood up to big punchers like Sam Peter.

    Wilder win by KO (not TKO) early. This would probably be Wilder's most highlight reel knockout ever.

    Let's be serious here....................ain't no 5'6 170 lb man on Earth beating Wilder, from any era...............

    These questions never make any sense. It's basically just "is everything we know about weight classes bull ****?" with the people supporting the older fighting saying "yes, everything we know about weight classes is bull****".

    If sub 200lbs sub 5'10 heavyweights could compete today, they'd be competing today. The fact that average height and average mass have been increasing continuously to the point where the average top 10 heavyweight is now 6'4 240lbs should tell you something.
