    Wlad v the versions of these guys that Marciano faced?
    I'm not going to bother with Cokkell.
    How does he do?

    Depends if he can illegally hold on for dear life? I don’t think he gets away with it in the 50s without points being deducted. You may know more then me in that regard but I don’t recall anyone holding like that since Jack Johnson. That being said all have a shot at beating Wlad except Lastarza. Moore might even pull out a decision/KO at his best.
    Don’t see Charles winning stylistically. And Walcott’s chin probably lets him down but he’s got a punchers chance.

    If a certain fighter could get away with butting, hitting on the break , after the bell , and when his opponent was down,I think a bit of holding might go unpunished, though I hated Wlad doing it, his performance against Povetkin was pretty disgraceful ,imo.

    Wlad beats Walcott on points. Jersey Joe finds him self frustrated by wlads tactics through out.
    Lastarza is stopped in around 8 imo. But he takes a couple of rounds beforehand.
    Moore try s to fight his way in against Klitchko but finds himself getting tagged by his Jab. A tired Archie is dropped eventually in around the 9th. Battered to the canvas.
    The only one I see in with a chance of getting Wlad, is Charles. Classy fighter, he'd fight an intelligent fight, try not to get in to a war with him and get a decision win. But anyone takin on the best version of Wlad, has to put up a good plan, Ezzard doesn't come out with a win easily but I think he's capable of doing it.

    I wouldn't bet on any of them to get a win, but if I did Walcott and Charles would be 1 and 2

    Wlad via whitewash. Obviously I love Charles, but he ain't got a prayer here. Walcott could land something crazy and win but I doubt it. Moore and Lastarza have 0 chance.
