Prime Gene against: Choynski Kilrain Jackson Sullivan Sharkey Fitzsimmons Jeffries McCoy When Corbett fought them. Does Gene retire undefeated?
Not really.I rate Tunney a lot higher than Corbett.Jeffries would always be there, but I think Tunney would give him quite a scientific beating.
I always found that Fitz and Jeff would get to Tunney eventually, especially under the circumstances Corbett fought them like a finish fight or 25 rounder.
With all this film to sift through it’ll be a while before I have your answer! Corbett could’ve been one of the best ever, at one point he was the best fighter in the world… who knows if he was a lot better or a lot worse than Tunney? Assuming a whole lot I’ll say Fitz probably gets him?
Jeffries is the biggest question mark here; he was still a bit raw when he beat Corbett the first time, but by the 2nd time around I would confidently take Jeffries under the ruleset and round length of those times
