Basing off the original 8 weight classes and only using the same fighter once who are your two favorites in each division and who would you pick to win head to head between the two? I’ll go with :- Heavyweight Evander Holyfield & Floyd Patterson - I’d pick Holyfield to win Light Heavyweight Matthew Saad Muhammad & Harold Johnson - I’d pick Johnson to win Middleweight Marvin Hagler & Luis Rodriguez *- I don’t know here. I’d lean slightly towards Hagler. Welterweight Felix Trinidad & José Napoles - I’d pick Napoles to win Lightweight Carlos Ortiz and Benny Leonard - I’d pick Leonard to win Featherweight Juan Manuel Marquez & Salvador Sanchez - I’d pick Marquez to win Bantamweight Eder Jofre & Ruben Olivares - I’d pick Jofre to win Flyweight Mark Johnson & Jimmy Wilde - This is surprisingly tough given Wilde is the GOAT here so will pick him. * I realize Rodriguez was more of a welterweight and that’s his best but he was a great middle too and I had to fit Napoles in at 147.
HW Frazier vs Louis- Frazier wins LHW Saad Muhammad vs Tommy Loughran - Loughran wins MW Willie the Worm Monroe vs Bad Bennie Briscoe- Monroe wins WW- José Napoles vs Gypsy Joe Harris- Napoles wins LW Bobcat Montgomery vs Ismael Laguna- Montgomery wins FW Saldivar vs Azumah Nelson- Draw BW Joltin Jeff Chandler vs Miguel Happy Lora- Chandler wins Fly Jung Koo Chang vs Sot Chitalada- already fought twice
Interesting concept. Dempsey v Ali =Ali Foster v Moore= Moore Greb v Robinson= 50/50 Robinson v Leonard= Robinson Duran v Wiliams=Williams Saddler vPep Jofrev Olivares=Jofre Wilde v Lynch=50/50
