I think Charles & Norton beat him close.

Foreman either obliterates him early or loses a decision. I really can't call it.

Gene beats Floyd & Spinks by decision.

Pretty close to how I see things.

I have him 50-50 at Heavy with Charles (Tunney would beat him at LHW, IMO), and losing a close decision to Norton.

Foreman, I would expect to overwhelm him early, but Tunney is no worse than a live underdog.

I think he decisions Patterson and Spinks both.

Norton usually did well against boxers...I think he'd win.

I like Tunney against Spinks.

Foreman is a tricky one. I'd probably favour Tunney but not by much.

Charles and Patterson would be very close fights.
