Harold Johnson vs Jimmy Young peak for peak...

[Robinson]

How do you guys see this one playing out ?

Peak for peak....

Johnson as a 177-180lbs Heavyweight.

Young as a 210lb slick boxer.



Vs

[dempseyfire]

Johnson by UD.

Young wasn't as good vs fast slick boxers like he was vs the boxer-punchers like Lyle, Shavers, and Foreman (and the version of Ali he faced was neither slick nor fast)

[Goodnight, Irene]

Johnson by split for mine. He isn't going to like Young one bit, & will struggle to string consecutive rounds together. Still, his class (he was a cut or two above Young, but a full division smaller) would win out.

I would not be shocked, however, if Young beat him. Both are under-rated, but Johnson especially.

Johnson takes him IMO.

Johnson looks in such good shape in that pic with Louis.
