Obviously, #1 at Heavyweight, Collins. Only Louis would I actually, actively favour to beat him, & that, by a hair.

Not exactly Granberry-esque.

Yes, and it was awful, Kym.

Floyd Patterson? Never in a million years.

Lennox Lewis? I just can't visualise that.

I'd give Lewis a shot, because of his size, ability to utilise the range well, smart gameplan, & big-time hitting power is an ace-in-the-hole. Ali of the 60's didn't, to me, prove he could take a shot like the later version, but Lewis was mighty slow at times, & would have a very difficult time of things closing in on Ali.

Still, he was a skilled, intelligent big man, with a very good jab, & heavy overhand right. I doubt it, but maybe...

I can see Lewis doing it every now and again. But I would lean in Ali's
favour.

Patterson wins with me in his corner and with me willing him to win.
He wins because I chose the outcome. ;)
