Tyrell Biggs vs the following all whatever you wish to consider prime versions over 15 rounds Biggs vs gerry cooney Biggs vs Ron lyle ( if this has been done sorry ) Biggs vs ken norton Biggs vs Archie Moore Biggs vs Cleveland Williams Biggs vs billy miske Biggs vs oscar bonavena
Mr butt...u done this to humour me ? Ha ha only joking...will have a think about these..think Ty is in a bit of trouble in one or two of these !
I am pretty sure Ty is going to get his arse spanked in the majority of these and over 15 rounds he is in for a bad time in the vast majority of these as stamina was never proven to be his strong point
Why you choose these particular opponents ? I picked the likes of Berbick Foreman Bruno Thomas Williams because they were from his era and therefore relevant...had he been managed differently he could have met those type of guys...
Biggs vs gerry cooney , cooney has a good jab and goes to the body very well and showed against Holmes more guts than many thought he had I'd take cooney here by stoppage around the 8th Biggs vs Ron lyle , Biggs here for me may take an early lead Lyle would keep landing his big shots and as a result when Biggs slows Lyle will finish him Biggs vs ken norton , Norton for me by the at the most the 9th norton could break a man down real good so this is in no way a disgrace for Biggs Biggs vs Archie Moore , Biggs has speed ,youth , height advantages here but Moore has smarts and the bigger punch and bigger heart and determination . As Biggs will struggle to stop Moore i'd go with the smaller but more proven Moore in this one Biggs vs Cleveland Williams , actually not sure I know Biggs is quick on his feet but Williams could start real fast in fight and go for the quick ko . Would Biggs cope with this I am not sure if he does for me it's a toss up as Williams for me has a stamina question mark . Biggs vs billy miske , ok everyone I will have to think more about this one but at the moment I like miske to pull off a shock Biggs vs oscar bonavena , for me Biggs goes out and builds an early lead but ringo was a tough rugged ******* who Biggs would not be able to hurt ( that lack of sting will always hurt Biggs ) ringo by painful ground down stoppage around the 11or 12 round mark Some may think I am being generous to Biggs here in some of these match-ups
He was a talented young man but is a good example of someone with a high level of talent but not the application to dedicate himself enough .
Mr butt..if u read my last post at the end of the biggs v foreman thread i have explained a bit more of the source of my interest in Tyrell...(just to save me writing it again here).thanks.
Biggs vs Cooney- I think the fight would be relatively even for as long as it last but I think Cooney would get to Biggs at some point in the early rounds and take him out. Vs Ron Lyle- Again I feel the fight would be relatively even early but I'd expect Lyle to get to Biggs sometime in the early to mid rounds and take over the fight putting Biggs away at some point. Vs Ken Norton- Biggs may do alright for the first few rounds but I'd expect Norton to take over and take Biggs out sometime in the mid rounds Vs Archie Moore- Its hard to say how Moore would deal with a guy as big as Biggs who can box, I think Biggs could potentially win this fight on points but I'm leaning towards Moore to be more crafty and pick up the win probably on points but possibly via a late round stoppage. Vs Clevland Williams- I don't think Biggs would be able to deal with the equally big and much harder hitting Williams. I think Williams takes him out in the early rounds. Vs Bonavena- Again I could see Biggs being able to out box and out point Bonavena but Bonavena was a very strong dangerous fighter and overall proved himself a lot more then Biggs did over his career. If I had to pick a winner I'd go with Bonavena I could see him scoring a possible knockout at anytime from the early to late rounds. Sorry Biggs, you were talented but you never proved to be anything special at all as a pro. :deal
What's with the Tyrell Biggs fascination on here lately? The guy had solid speed, a great jab, and heart. On the other hand, he had no real power, absolutely no right hand, a below average chin, not much stamina, and he cut up easily.
Some fair and balanced comments on here re-Tyrell, only thing i dont agree with is he a weak chin. He beat Simms Snipes and an on song Bey,all 3 were bangers, none of them put him down,...also went 7 rounds with the most peak Tyson that anyone faced,accumulation of punishment was his undoing there...same as against Bowe ,he had limitations sure,and there were flaws in his style, but cant agree that he had a weak chin.
