    Default Michael Grant vs Jack Johnson

    Huge, 250lb, 6'7" modern behemoth (but limited) vs the much smaller all time great from 100 years ago.

    Who wins?

    I think these type of threads have been well covered recently. Everybody will say 'Grant with ease since he knew how to throw a proper punch without half falling over'. Then Ramonza will chime in saying he's shocked since Jack Johnson is an all time great and Michael Grant never even won a title.

    Grant, obviously.

    Grant's downfall was his lack of technical abilities, yet his technique was supreme compared to anyone who fought at Johnson's era, and his physical abilities were formidable. Grant wins in very easy fashion

    Its true because when someone beats someone who beat them its confusing like when Frazer beat Ali and Ali beat Foreman who beat Frazer Its because of styles make fights Foreman hits harder than Ali and that made him able to knock out Frazer But Foreman could not knock out Ali because Ali was different to Frazier with his style.
    and also, the jab is a good punch to do.

    Jack Johnson wins clearly. Size only matters to a point...

    So? This is like a James Bond movie - you know what will happen but it is still entertaining

    If they were the same size I'd probably still go with Grant

    By the way, was Jack Johnson the ugliest heavyweight champion ever after Carnera? That's one oddly shaped skull. If you created it on fightnight create a champ, it'd look like a program glitch.

    Any other contenders?

    Didn't Valuev have some disorder that made his skull super thick? Kinda a real world correlate to Homer Simpson syndrome or some shit. I'm not sure he should have been allowed to compete, that seems like an unfair advantage to me.

    Giantism.

    All "Giants" have a similar face the way all "Dwarfs" have a similar face.

    Nah, top level sports are all about being exceptional in physical sense. Next you could ban Pacquiao for being so damn fast that it is unfair. Also, considering Valuev never even became a champ it isn't a big problem anyway

    Grant easy cmon. If Grant fought in the black and white era he would be considered an all time great.

    Life is good

    Michael Grant in the era of 4 ounce gloves is still a recipe for disaster, mind. Jack Dempsey for instance would still probably knock 9 of his teeth out.
