Who would win in their prime at heavyweight? Would Elmer Ray use his power to pound Bivins to win by late round KO from any late rounds or a decision in 15 rounds or Bivins use his boxing skills behind his 76 inches in reach with his jabs to win a decision? Tell me your opinion.

Not sayin' Ray wouldn't be plenty violent, I'm sure he would be......just that Bivins would outclass him.

If Elmer "Violent" Ray beat the elite level of Ezzard Charles and Jersey Joe Walcott before losing to both in their rematches, why not Jimmy Bivins? However, Bivins beat 8 out of 11 world champions in his time.

To be fair to Charles, he was just a light heavy when he fought Ray. But sure, Ray would have a chance. Guess I would lean towards Bivins. Too bad it never happened.

Elmer some people believe The Brown Bomber was weary of him so I pick Big Ray by TKO late in the fight
