    Let's give ol' Tony some meat he can really chew on. Take his "skill set" back to an age in which it would be more appreciated... and likely more successful.

    15 rounds, George Siler ref.

    Sharkey. Far quicker, more explosive, far better conditioned. Had formidable power and toughness though he could be dropped. Two Ton has a solid chin but I see Sharkey’s consecutive bombs getting him out after potentially facing an early knockdown.

    Most of Tony's stoppages were due to cuts if I recall. Baer and Louis took him out legit. I don't know if Sharkey is in that category.
