Please tell me in your opinion how would the Dick Tiger who beat Jose Torres twice for the World Light Heavyweight Title, including a gifted decision in their rematch would fare against the light heavyweights of the 1970s whom fought Tiger's conquer Bob Foster?
How would Dick Tiger fare against the following light heavyweights in the 1970s:
Vincente Rondon
Mike Quarry
Chris Finnegan
Pierre Fourie
Jorge Ahumada

The great Bob Foster sent him back to the middleweight division. The great Dick Tiger probably beats half or all the guys mentioned above.
But against, Matthew Saad Muhammad, Eddie Gregory, Yaqui Lopez, Marvin Johnson and the great Michael Spinks would destroy Tiger. They would've been too big for him.

Tiger probably wouldn't have had too much trouble with Rondon. Quarry and Finnegan would not be easy, but he should win those. He probably had enough to just get by Ahumada and Fourie.

Yes Ambling Alp, Tiger is one tough fighter against the light heavyweights in the 1970s and he would pressure them in order to win the fight against them.
