    lightweight: Roberto Duran - tough one Shane Mosley? not sure tho but i am sure a prime 135 Mosley would not back down

    Welterweight: Prime Shane Mosley - Ray Robinson i think

    Middleweight: Dick Tiger - Hagler,Ketchel,Lamotta? i dont think they could

    Super Middleweight: Carl Froch - Nigel Benn,James Toney i think they would

    Heavyweight: George Foreman - ? cant think of anyone Tyson would try but i dont think he could outbrawl Foreman

    Even though he wasn't an educate preesure man who advanced with his footwork as much as he liked to make room for devastating combinations of punches, I would still say that Ike Williams has the best chance against Duran.

    Maybe outpunched would be the word to use. I know Duran would be initiating the brawls and he would be in serious danger when doing so against Williams anyway.

    I reckon Mosley would be ****ed against Duran and Robinson. Against Duran because there is quite a blatant difference in how dynamic they both are. Mosley is gunna be so much easier to hit clean for Duran than vice versa. Robinson is just too good for Mosley

    Duran - Ike Williams - Duran would murder "no defence" Mosley.
    Mosley - plenty of guys: Walker would be my first choice.
    Tiger - IMO no one
    Froch - Calzaghe
    Foreman - I always thought Max Baer would do it. His chin is about as good, he punches as hard their defence is equal but Baer has the better stamina.

    Dick Tiger would be terribly difficult to outbrawl, him vs LaMotta would be a classic.

    Froch would be outbrawled by Mikkel Kessler and Dick Tiger.

    Tyson would either smash Foreman and befuddle him or get ****ing raped by him. So I'm none the wiser.

    Mosley would get out-brawled by plenty of fighters.
