    For me I’d go
    Hagler
    Moore
    Marciano
    Tyson
    Walcott
    Johnson
    Holyfield
    Patterson
    Robinson
    Close fights all around I believe. Def several that could go either way.

    Hagler SD
    Moore SD
    Holmes SD
    Liston KO
    Walcott-Witherspoon is 50/50
    Qawi SD
    Holyfield SD
    Dokes-Patterson is 50/50
    Robinson SD

    All close, good fights. I can tell they were carefully thought out Gazelle.

    Actually shocked so many picking Qawi over Johnson. One of the few fights I thought would be overwhelmingly picked Johnson.

    IMHO:
    Hagler
    Spinks, but I wouldn't bet on it.
    Marciano
    Liston
    Walcott
    Qawi, but I wouldn't bet on this one either.
    Holyfield
    Patterson
    Robinson
