Worst fighter who could beat every British heavyweight champion before Lewis?

Well I have a suggestion to tinker with the rules. Let our chosen one space them out as he chooses as long as he had to beat all 36 in six years. If he wants to pick the least of the lot (sure to include a lot of the earlier guys) who he might could easily dispose of and fight, say, six of them in four weeks, then take the other 11 months of that year to space out as he chooses over the next fight … now we’re getting closer to a fair test.

And by all means, let him choose the order. Fight Mason and Bugner earlier in order so you don’t have the larger guys waiting at the end of a weary journey.

How we’re cooking with Crisco.

 

Haha. I think guys I’ve mentioned here already:

Frank Bruno

Carl Williams

Earnie Shavers

Of these I’d venture Williams is ‘the worst.’

But I’d give Kallie Knoetze a shot and rate him below Williams.

 

Since I seem to be having one my rare nights trying to get a good sleep, I'm going to try to answer this:

For this super human task, I want a Heavyweight who can intimidate many of them and dispose of a good portion of them, quickly, thus decreasing the likelihood that he will sustain damage, himself. Less actual rounds in the ring equals more ability to fight often, in some cases more often than every 2 months. These shorties will make up for that occasional pain in the "you know what," who will extend my "Conqueror of the British" Hero into later rounds by some means or another, thereby causing a longer layoff than 2 months. I'm thinking that the guy made to order for this revolutionary task is a young Mike Tyson, and I'm going with Iron Mike.

 

I do not believe Bruno would win v a younger Bugner. imagine 25 year old each of them. Bugner wins.

actually Bruno would lose to a few I believe. Farr give Joe Louis hard fight & beat Max Baer. not losing to robot stiff Bruno if they are best shape each.

 

I answered assuming they'd be aiming for fighting at that in average, varying the breaks depending on how hard the fights are, and their injury status, but to some extent fighting through injuries. Like the old school guys on a hectic schedule did.

I do agree sticking to that schedule perfectly against a line up of opponents they have no control over would be brutal.

 

Earnie Shavers is an odd pick to me. A lot of his wins were against terrible opposition, and he didn't even have a spotless record against weak opponents.

There's plenty of the British champions that would be a serious threat without even taking the insane schedule into account.

 

Most of the lot weren’t terribly durable or blessed with great punch resistance pre-Lewis, and a great many just weren’t very good period.

Earnie stands to knock a lot of them out early … look what he did to Bugner, who I figure to give more people problems than many of the others on that list. So that’s why I picked him.

Who would you pick?
