Heavyweights: Mike "Hercules" Weaver vs. Corrie Sanders

Post by scorpio83 »

15 Rounds Heavyweight Bout

Either Weaver made a slow start by taking bombs from the southpaw Sanders, then making a comeback with jabs, body punches and heavy punches to take a decision or late round stoppage or Sanders would overwhelm Weaver behind his heavy southpaw combinations and knocking him out at least 10 rounds after nailing him with a heavy left hand. What do you guys think and who do you got?

With Weaver in these fights, I assume we are going by how he at his best. He fought a long time and took a while to develop early in his career and lost a lot late in his career. Like Braddock, Walcott or Young, his win/loss record is deceiving. During his prime, he fought a lot of the top guys around, sometimes winning. This version of Weaver have beaten the guys mentioned recently on Mythical Fights.
Would have to pick him to beat the golfer as well.

A peak Weaver stop Sanders around the tenth round-but it's a dangerous fight for Weaver; an early KO loss wouldn't surprise me at all.

Weaver has suffered some early KOs, Sanders definitely could do it to him. But if Sanders failed, Weaver would KO Corrie later on.

I might go for Sanders here and especially in SA....although the longer 15 rounds favours Mike Weaver.
