Hypothetical Match-Up Game

Goodnight, Irene · Post by **Goodnight, Irene** » 24 Mar 2008, 00:02

Dempsey on cuts in seven. This is a scorching fire-fight, in which both men have to arise from the canvas. Dempsey down in first, Marciano down in third. In the end, Dempsey's superior reach, speed & reflexes are the (very small) difference. Both want a rematch afterward, true warriors.

Jeffries vs Frazier, 15 rounds

Robinson · Post by **Robinson** » 24 Mar 2008, 01:09

Frazier TKO's tough guy Jeffries inside the 9th,

Jefferies has his strong moments where he muslces Frazier around, getting trapped on the ropes he takes alot of hard shots to the body and head. Frazier gets him in trouble and wobbles Jeffries. The Ref steps in saving the Boilermaker.

Tommy Burns (HW) Vs Leon Spinks (peak for peak) over 15 rounds.

theone · Post by **theone** » 24 Mar 2008, 06:50

Spinks UD 15 Burns.

Sandy Saddler vs. Salvador Sanchez

Goodnight, Irene · Post by **Goodnight, Irene** » 24 Mar 2008, 07:49

Saddler via narrow UD in a barn-burner. The ice-cool-under-pressure Sanchez rallies late, snatching the last two rounds. Saddler floored on a questionable knockdown (some ringside saw it, others didn't). Saddler is just that touch busier which makes the difference. His fouls fail to phase the unflappable Sanchez throughout.

Mundine Sr. vs Mundine Jr, twelve rounds

Robinson · Post by **Robinson** » 25 Mar 2008, 01:13

Mundine sr manages to drop Jr in the 12th round. Ref steps in saving Jr.

Jersey Joe Walcott Vs Greg Page (both in peak shape) 12 rounds

HomicideHenry · Post by **HomicideHenry** » 25 Mar 2008, 02:35

Jersey Joe Walcott wins this fight by TKO in the 11th round after leading throughout. Page was arguably best of the WBA belt holders in the 1980's, and could have been something more...but Walcott is severely under-rated and his fighting style was the mold that Angello Dundee set for a young upstart named Cassius Clay aka Muhammad Ali.

Max Schmeling vs Jack Dempsey, 15 rounds

p4p1 · Post by **p4p1** » 25 Mar 2008, 02:49

jack dempsey knocks schmeling out in the 4th round after beating him badly for all four rounds with his relentless attacks

PBF vs Duran at lightweight 12 rounds

HomicideHenry · Post by **HomicideHenry** » 25 Mar 2008, 18:02

I think ur dempsey-schemling ideals is way off...but whatever, to each his own opinion....

anyways...are you kidding me?

Duran beats Mayweather so bad he beats him like he was his daddy, Duran wins unaminous decision

John L. Sullivan vs Randall 'Tex' Cobb, fight to the finish rules

Robinson · Post by **Robinson** » 25 Mar 2008, 20:59

Cobb outlasts Sullivan, though his face is cut up.

Sullivan quits on his stool at the start of the 29th round.

Duane Bobick Vs Lou Savarese over ten rounds.

Duane Bobick Vs Lou Savarese over ten rounds.

Bobick the better Boxer but i feel Savarese would win by UD.

Seems to have more determination seeing how he fared to the likes of Holyfield and Lewis. (Got Blown away by Tyson but cant blame him for that).

But his Wins against Witherspoon and douglas shows he had skill

BUMP!!!

**hopes observer will sooner, rather than later place in his own hypothetical**

Snooze ya looze..

Doug Jones vs Ray Mercer peak for peak 10 rounds.

HomicideHenry · Post by **HomicideHenry** » 28 Mar 2008, 11:17

Sheesh give Robinson some credit for making difficult match-ups. While Jones was one of the best contenders of the 1960's, I have always thought Ray Mercer was also on the cusp, he was just a notch or so below the top men of his time as well [personally I think he won the Lewis fight, so maybe he was on equal ground]...I think Mercer wins a dubious decision over Jones in what would be nominated, though not win, 'Fight of The Year'.

Jack Johnson vs Luther McCarty, 15 rounds

The aging black champion against the greatest of the 'white hopes'

Robinson · Post by **Robinson** » 29 Mar 2008, 03:40

It'd have been a good fight to watch.

Is there any film of McCarthy ? what I have read is always in praise of this big contender.

JOhnson is in his best form, McCarthy comes in after some big wins, obviously not dead, is now 23. Johnson is in trouble at times, but manages to win the later rounds. He gets a MD over 15 rounds.

In best form...both guys are well trained and in superb career shapes.

Tony Tucker vs Jersey Joe Walcott. Set for 12 rounds.

observer1 · Post by **observer1** » 29 Mar 2008, 06:19

Tony Tucker vs Jersey Joe Walcott. Set for 12 rounds.

Hmmm, Would be an interesting one...

At first Glance i see Walcott walking this one, but lookin in-depth, i would give the edge to Tony Tucker

Tucker Wins KO 11.

ah i forgot to Put my own Hyp. Match up. Oh well never mind :P

Robinson · Post by **Robinson** » 29 Mar 2008, 06:25

Now you post a hypothetical match up good sir.

Robinson · Post by **Robinson** » 29 Mar 2008, 06:40

I shall do it for ya then ;)

Travis Fulton Vs Tra Telligman 6 rounds.

The MMA HW that tried to make some success in boxing.

HomicideHenry · Post by **HomicideHenry** » 29 Mar 2008, 10:50

Fulton wins decision over 6 rounds...

Floyd Mayweather vs Floyd Mayweather, Sr

theone · Post by **theone** » 29 Mar 2008, 14:24

Jr., easy UD or late tko over Sr. A more interesting fight would be Floyd against Uncle Roger.
I think Roger gives Jr. a few scares early, possibly even dropping him sometime between rounds 1 and 4. Jr. recovers and finishes the fight with a fairly comfortable lead on all scorecards.

Anyway....

Roy Jones Jr. vs Floyd Patterson

Minotauro · Post by **Minotauro** » 29 Mar 2008, 14:35

Patterson via KO near 10 he had the hand speed to almost match Jones and hit a lot harder he put combinations together beautifully.

Robinson · Post by **Robinson** » 30 Mar 2008, 01:46

Patterson vs RJJ would be a damned interesting fight to watch.

Mino, you post a hypothetical match up now.

a real stumper i guess,no?

I picture this being a lightheavy version of Gatti-Ward.

Lopez ralleys in the last 3 rounds to pull off a MD Win.

Dwight Muhammed Quawi vs. Marvin Hagler.12 rounds.

It is a year after Hagler's Decision loss to SRL and he has decided to move up to LHW after a temporary retirement decision. 8)

The Great John L · Post by **The Great John L** » 31 Mar 2008, 14:08

Hagler returning one year after the SRL “loss” gets out jabbed and countered by the 3’-6” Qawi until the ref stops the fight in the middle rounds due to Hagler’s left eye being completely closed. Qawi has a slight lead at the time of the stoppage.

The victor Qawi then steps into the ring with Georges Carpentier
