    I think they'd both have trouble in each other's eras.

    Shakur would either get disqualified for clinching or lose a decision cause of not being the aggressor in Armstrong's era.

    Armstrong wouldn't be allowed to fight on the inside with the referees in the modern era and his aggression wouldn't do much for today's judges.

    Both are screwed. Lol

    Isn’t shakur a decent bit bigger? Hank’s peak weight was like 135-142 and Shakur surely rehydrates to the high 150s at the very least?

    Shakur Stevenson by unanimous decision
    Something like 8–4 or 9–3 in rounds.

    Armstrong makes it uncomfortable, maybe even ugly—but Stevenson’s defense, movement, and accuracy neutralize the swarm. Armstrong’s heart wins respect; Stevenson’s craft wins the fight.
