Jack Sharkey vs. Two Ton Tony Galento

Post by scorpio83 »

15 Rounds Heavyweight Bout

The Boston Gob would outbox and counterpunch Two Ton Tony behind his long jabs and good body punches along with a good left hook to take a decision. What do you guys think and who do you got?

Sharkey definitely would win the fight. I don't think it's out of the question he might stop Galento later in the bout either.

It depends on what version of Sharkey showed up. He could look brilliant one night and the next night just fold like an accordion. But if it is the A+ Sharkey then I'd suspect he would dance rings around Galento in a lopsided decision. He had little problem overcoming size and strength advantages as evident in his 15 round decision over Primo Carnera, which happens to be my favorite fight of Sharkey's and I tend to think his best performance overall as a pro though the Italian giant had his moments.
