Yeah, I'd pretty confidently take Simon over Joppy. Clear UD. Maybe a better question is Simon vs Vargas.
"Dying is easy. Comedy is hard."
The myth of Tyson is one thing, but Mike really would wipe his ass with every fighter Boss listed in this thread.
Based on styles, Bowe might have beaten the early 90s Tyson, who while still very good, was no longer as good as 86-88 Tyson. Bowe probably would...
Before Ruddock fell in love with his power, I'd back him. Not that he was some Larry Holmes type boxer, but he had more skill than Wilder, and...
The 04-05 Hatton would destroy Khan. No decision here, the Con Man isn't going the distance. Not that Hatton was Julian Jackson as a puncher, but...
You know better than that last statement, because there was 3 years in between the first Kessler-Froch fight and the rematch. Kessler was ALREADY...
Well, he fights Holyfield and I suspect beats Holyfield in the early 90s, though Holy fans would disagree. Thing about Mike is, if he never goes...
I know you like Golota and that's cool, but OBJECTIVELY, how do vote that he lasts past 3? Golota couldn't mentally handle 2 rounds from a washed...
There's a couple guys on this list whom Mike really would take out inside of 3, though. Like Michael Grant and David Gaye... those guys are not...
Their respective fights against Froch clearly show Kessler was better. Only two guys beat Kessler in his prime, Calzaghe and Ward - two HOFmers....
Depends on Kessler at the weight. Kessler was the better fighter of the two, and in 06 he was very sharp. But it's possible he wouldn't be...
This fight is a good showcase of Marcel's skillset: [MEDIA]
"If Froch had a weakness." LOL. JOM is talking about Froch like he's Ricardo Lopez or something. Froch had plenty of weaknesses.
One of the great featherweights, very underrated. RIP.
Yeeaaaa ok. A skill-less oaf with zero jab, zero defense, a dodgy chin, and no ability to fight going backwards is gonna beat Tyson? Riiiight....
Yeah, I was confused for a second. Like WTF would be the difference? It's a tough call. One hand, Pascal is nowhere near as good as Ward and...
You're basically using Stafford logic. If I picked Michael Spinks to beat Calzaghe, Stafford would say "Yeah, just like you picked Lacy to beat...
One reason Froch would badly struggle with Calz is due to physical strength. I'll give it to Calz in that was extremely physically strong at 168 -...
Bradley-Provodnikov comes to mind. Bradley was saved by the bell at the end of the 12th, and had zero left. If there was a 13th round Provo would...
Akinwande: Goes past 3 only because he'd clinch for dear life. Mike would get him out eventually, but due to those spoiling tactics Henry goes...
The Wilder fights are a poor indicator of how Fury would fare against Bowe, because quite simply... Beyonce can't fight a lick. Maybe we could...
Lb 4 Lb's views kinda reflects the general feeling of the majority of the forum. Not many posters on here are into boxing the way I am anymore,...
Epic fuckin loser.
I had DLH-Trinidad a draw. And while I won't always resort to "If it was a 15 rounder..." in this case, I will. If it was a 15 rounder Oscar...
Aside from money, it also depends on which fighter is aligned with the more connected promoter. Hence why DLH, despite being the biggest cash cow...
I'm late to the party, but while race will ALWAYS be a big part of boxing, this is a sport which will always be run first and foremost on green....
Yeah, he plain and simple was incapable of beating a Tyson/Lewis like puncher. Bowe was NOT a puncher on the level of Tyson/Lewis.
Golota's jab would be a non-issue. It looked great against Bowe, but Tyson is a different kettle of fish. 96 Tyson could still close the gap...
Also in fairness to Joe, he deserves credit for the Kessler win. Hindsight is 20-20 but the fact is that MANY were picking Kessler in that fight,...
