Re: Dwight Muhammad Qawi vs David Haye @ Cruiser
Qawi was a great fighter, Haye wasn't. Qawi on points over 12 and maybe stopping Haye very late over 15.

Re: Will Ike Ever Fight Again? ( WIEFA )
Except for Fury and Usyk, I'd take Ike to beat anybody else today. Bakole would be epic.

Re: Don Cockell's height is wrong
At his court marshal, Marciano testified that he was 5'10.5". It was common practice in the army at that time to measure a soldier with his shoes on- the thinking was that a man does his job while wearing shoes.

Re: David Benavidez vs. David Morrell - Who wins?
Prior to Morell's last bout I would have bet heavily on him. Now, it's a 50-50 affair, imo.

Pro Boxing in prison
I've been researching Scott's career via New Jersey and Florida newspapers. What are the board's thoughts on Scott having been allowed to fight in prison in particular and also should such a program be reinstituted ? In addition, Matthew Saad Muhammad is on record as having said he wouldn't fight Sc...

I'd match him with Joe Joyce. Zhang will knock out Joshua, and a bout with Wilder is an obscenity now.

Re: If Tyson Fury loses to Usyk in the rematch...
As for Usyk: after a rematch win over Fury a Dubois rematch is a natural at a stadium in England. The low blow controversy will be used to market it and Usyk makes a fortune and beats Dubois again.
