    They were both LHW World Champs at the same time for like 100 years. It really should have happened. Who wins had they fought, prime vs. prime?

    Hill.

    At that time, the bout would have only taken place in his backyard and he loved that homecooking. The Prince doesn't get the ko and like some of those other title challengers, you weren't beating Hill on the Cards back then. It was like the opponent was down 3-0 before the opening bell and all hill had to do was win 3 rounds of the fight and he had a draw.

    I'm convinced he gets the nod over Darius if that bout was in Bismark and not Germany. And people complain about the home cooking there.

    If they met in 88-91 I take Williams, but Hill would of won there after. His regalnesses long break pre Maske took something out of him. A lot more than Tommy took from Hill, indeed Virgil arguable got better post Motor City Cobra.
