Bobby Czyz versus Doug Dewitt

Post by goose 5 »

I though this fight would happen and am very surprised it did't. How would it have gone ?

Czyz's career progressed much faster than DeWitt's. By the time DeWitt had become a contender, Czyz had already moved up in weight.

As a fight between the two at middleweight (at their best) Czyz would not completely dominate him, but he would have the upper hand. He probably wins a 10-round decision with only losing a couple of rounds or so.

Had they actually fought in real time, in say 1982, Czyz would have won more easily.

Aren't they completely different weights? A middle weight and a cruiserweight

Czyz moved up to CW later in his career. In 1982 he was a middleweight.

I think a lot of people forget Czyz came up as a middleweight.

I just looked him up and was shocked to see he beat Robbie Sims at middle weight I knew czyz had fought at light heavy but not middle weight ...... I'm surprised and stand corrected

Hamsho gave him one of the worst touted prospect lessons you'd ever see. Czyz/Ramos was a future thought for a huge fight. Tomorrow's champions, those two, I think bumphus and lockridge maybe Ayala. Don't know why they're the only two I remember for certain
