    Given the practically one-sided response concerning the recent Kovalev v Louis thread I thought I would dip my toe in the water with this one.
    Tunney as a heavyweight versus Kovalev at whatever weight he chooses to make. Fifteen rounds ,are there any surprises?

    No. Tunney by late fight stoppage.

    This would have been as disasterous for Kovalev, in a different way of course as a meeting with Louis. Tunney would have administered a beating on the way to a late tko over my favorite fighter of today. I guess I've proven that, in my responses to the two threads, ...Kovalev vs Louis and now Tunney, that I'm not exactly a "fan-boy" for Serge.

    Tunney was incredible. I know he doesn't get as much mainstream criticism as he deserves for the colour line but he was amazingly talented.
