Which former heavyweight champ could Jai Opetaia have beaten?

Disingenuous? Wilder is awful but his CV is about as good as Morrisons in fairness.

I like Tommy but he is absolutely a case of “the older we get, the better we were.” You’ll also note in one of my earlier posts the caveat the Opetaia would have to stay out of Morrison’s way early but my opinion is that this is entirely possible. I also never made any comparison between Morrison and other HW’s around today. I suspect you are confusing me with someone else. FWIW, as much as I think Tommy’s CV is pretty weak, I think he’d be a very live dog against almost every HW around today, Usyk being the notable exception.

Also, referring to the title of this thread I am not out of order tipping Opetaia against someone like Morrison. Would I tip him against Liston, Ali, Holmes or Foreman level guys? No. But at or around Tommy’s level I think he wins as many as he loses.

I’m not sure what is unreasonable about that.

 

The person I replied to said there's "no way" the likes of Morrison, Rahman, Briggs could beat Opetaia that's just ridiculous even if they favored Opetaia to win.

 

Yeah, I’m not sure that’s the position I’d be taking at this point.

 

Anthony Joshua

 

John Ruiz.

 

It seems everybody beats Anthony Joshua.

 

Jai Opetaia would have knocked Oleg Maskaev out cold
