Griffith uses his greater all-around ability to edge out a close, hard-fought decision.

Robinson in 1949 may not have quite the fire he previously showed at 147 (perhaps from being weight drained?) but he still has too much for Cokes. Robinson uses his all-around boxing ability to win a wide decision.

You forgot the last (and most important) part!

i'll take it..

the excellent harold johnson, too long under-rated, makes mincemeat of reggie johnson. the 6th round sees HJ KO RJ with a terrific right hand that ends the fight before reggie hits the floor.

harold johnson KO 6

Loughran is too skilled and mobile for Berlenbach and boxes his way to a wide decision.


Next up: Henry Armstrong vs. Battling Battalino @Featherweight.

Next up: Henry Armstrong vs. Battling Battalino @Featherweight.

Hard fought fight, lots of action, but Hammerin' Hank's perpetual motion attack wears Battalino down and is stopped in the 11th round.

No, realism. It makes a lot more sense to speculate about two fighters from the same era who really could have met (but didn't) then some nonsensical match-up between Jem Mace v. Rocky Marciano, or Bob Fitzsimmons v. Lennox Lewis.

Agreed, Greb.

I didn't mean to offend . . . just an opinion.

Whatever floats your boat.

Someone make a match up

Henry still has an unaddressed match-up.

OK but why do we have to contain it to non fiction characters in fictional bouts? How about this bit of authentic total fiction?

Joe Palooka vs Sargeant Rock both in their prime at HW.
