    All the talk about Harry Greb today has got me thinking back to a thread I've wanted to start for a while.

    If you were a pro fighter, which fighter in history would you want to face and when and which fighter would you be terrified of fighting? Doesn't have to be in your weight class

    YES-Duran (barkley fight)

    HELL NO!-Harry Greb (Tunney 1)

    To go away from the Tyson/Foreman type answers I'll go with Chang.

    I mean, I can fight a bit, but for someone who considers himself quite brave once engaged in fisticuffs, Chang would lay a frightening beating on me, and I walk around about a stone heavier than he fought at.

    I'll go for Amir Khan. Knowing his style as I do I feel that if my chin holds up long enough I can land a big shot on his glass jaw and become a legend to my mates :lol:

    good answers:good

    chang is similar to my greb: it's not a one punch knockout necessary but a life altering beating. not that greb couldn't knock me out with one punch but otherwise it would be torture for 15 ****ing rounds

    khan's a good one: ALWAYS gonna be vulnerable to that one big shot. hold em high, bide your time and hope for the best

    Nah, I'd try and wade straight into him with a low slung left, using upper body and head movement to take the edge of his speedy combos as o try and close the gap, swinging the obviously low slung left across in a Barrera-type half hook-half uppercut which Khan, being a professional boxer, will easily spot and slip....

    ....leading him onto the short right I've set him up for, bang on the chin, Flea KO 1 Khan :deal

    :happygood plan. i'd have a different strategy. i'm canadian so i'd try to "chuvalo" him: my best combo would be my left chin to his right cross. walk forward, take my beating and hope for the best

    No, you see like your friend you are taking my words out of context. You know this, thats how self proclaimed experts work. But i'll make it clear to you just incase you are really stupid. I said he is MORE OBSCURE than the other 3 fighters. Which he is. Where is your problem with me saying that?

    I have a problem with quite a few things you say, you are another person to add to the list of the unnecessary ****s that populate the Classic Forum.

    And how can you call me a troll? I have opinions different to yours? Who are you? A guy on the internet, thats your credibility. The same as mine.
