    Or a style matchup that results in a one sided fight between two greats.
    Hypothetical.
    example: I think tony tucker at his best could beat holyfield because of styles
    I think ike ibeabuchi would have destroyed joe frazier.

    James Toney vs. Chad Dawson

    Then again, Toney was lazy and inconsistent and lost to lesser fighters than Dawson so I suppose it isn't surprising.
