Who Under190lbs Would Be Successful From1970 Onwards?

Marciano, Charles and Dempsey are the 3 big contenders. I'd favor them over most

Some others that could nick titles over weaker lineal champs and abc champs:

Tunney
Moore
Langford
Patterson
Conn
Loughran
Sharkey (Jack and Tom)
Schmeling

 

Sam Langford
Billy Miske
Jack Dempsey
Gene Tunney
Johnny Risko
Tommy Loughran
Max Schmeling
John Henry Lewis
Bob Pastor
Billy Conn
Ezzard Charles
Rocky Marciano
Archie Moore
Floyd Patterson
Michael Spinks

I will end it with him, because you said no hypothetical versions.

 

Im sure we're going to get to the bottom of this.

 

List is great I’d add
Cooper
Roy jones
Satterfield
Hide

 

Nice of you to name all the champs lol the question was who would have success. Considering Roy Jones and Hide did have success it already answers the question. Should have added Holyfield pre roids. Cooper was a good fighter and was probably cheated out of handing Ali his first loss (great job by the corner). I’d say he could hang w most of them. I’m not going through four fighters and that list. I’ll just say Jones, Cooper could hang w most and take a few wins. Hide and Satterfield are more gate keepers.

how old are you lol? Grow up child. You asked a question and people were nice enough to engage in your question. You asked what fighters under 190 would have success and you're crying because I named two that actually did have success. Jones beat Ruiz on that list. One would assume one fight or not that’s success.

And FYI Cooper has some solid wins.

 

Yes. Yes we will Seamus. And then we MUST go to the bottom of the SEA

 

I think Jack Dempsey would annihilate the division today. No fighter today ever encountered a fighter like him. On the contrary he's fought and beaten multiple people who absolutely dwarfed him. His weakness wasn't big oppenents. As a matter of fact, those were the ones he feasted on. I believe he said he liked mixing it the bigger fighters as they represented bigger targets or something along those line. No his weakness were the slicksters as Tunney showed (and even this was when he was rusty and well past his best) .

 

Are today's trainers and managers and promoters just cinderblock stupid because they aren't looking for the next heavyweight prospect to be some sub-6 foot, 185 pound, plodding white boy with two left feet?

Y'all should inform them of their misguided ways.

 

The answer will be revealed on page 4
