BoxRec

Four matches per 'round'. These are all hypothetical matches, no computer usage unless BoxBuzz wants to do that for shits and giggles. These are 20 names rounded up, some you may know, some are old school and some are new, some you might not know.

This will all go very much like the tournament Jezzamundo is doing, with a group rating A-F, A of course being the top of the class and F being the absoloute worse of the ATG's [the 'A' group will just be the top ranked man in the tournament, the other groups will be more than one].

First four matches:

Archie Moore vs Harold Johnson

Tommy Loughran vs John Henry Lewis

Mike McTigue vs Joey Maxim

George Carpentier vs Maxie Rosenbloom


Votes will be tallied on the next Sunday. 8)

Very interesting pick with the Moore fight Decagon...can I ask why you chose Moore to kayo Johnson? I think Johnson, personally, had just as good a success against HW's as Moore did, so I think he could have taken Moore's shots. Plus, the two men fought eachother 4 or 5 times, and all but one went the distance.

Johnson was a good fighter, won decisions over Ezzard Charles and beat men like Satterfield, Bivins, Gudoy, Valdes, Slade, Whitehurst...I mean the list goes on and on.

Lol, I suspect u been drinking again Decagon...but am sure u have ur reasons

My picks?

Archie Moore wins via split decision over Harold Johnson

Tommy Loughran wins via a close, but unaminous decision over John Henry Lewis

Joey Maxim wins via a close, boring, but unaminous decision over Mike McTigue

Maxie Rosenbloom wins via unaminous decision over the french war hero George Carpentier in the most exciting bout of the three previous ones held, slapping 'The Human Orchid' silly for 15 rounds, though he himself was dropped late in the fight.

Archie Moore WUD 15 Harold Johnson
Tommy Loughran WSD 15 John Henry Lewis
Mike McTigue WSD 15 Joey Maxim
Georges Carpentier WUD 15 Maxie Rosenbloom

Well Moore did stop Johnson. As for Johnson-Charles, my understanding is that was a controversial decision, and the fight was in Johnson's hometown. Anyway I would say Moore, Loughran, Maxim, Rosenbloom all by decision.

Archie Moore TKO 14 Harold Johnson
John Henry Lewis SD 15 Tommy Loughran

Grimm....

Moore vs Johnson and the other bouts are just the first round matches...

Moore, Tunney, Charles and several others (20 fighters total to be exact) are also in this tournament including Michael Spinks.

Thanks I was aboout to cry

Archie Moore KO 11 Harold Johnson--- Moore was a special kind of puncher, he could hit you with every punch from every corner
Tommy Loughran UD John Henry Lewis--- Loughran was one of the best pure boxers ever, IMO a bit too much for the tough Lewi
Joey Maxim UD Mike McTigue--- although a bit unknown, underrated and almost forgotten today, Maxim would be too much with his tricky style for the Irish man
Georges Carpentier UD 15 Maxie Rosenbloom--- As a LHW, Georges was really a beast, Rosenbloom was a great boxer with great skills, but the French wouldn´t have respected his "power", he would all night throw punch after punch

Votes tallied so far:


9-0 for Moore over Johnson

8-1 Loughran over Lewis

5-4 Maxim over McTigue

6-3 Rosenbloom over Carpentier

If any fights end up in a dead heat I'll offer to run a sim to break the tie.

10-0 Moore over Johnson

9-1 Loughran over Lewis

5-5 DRAW between Maxim and McTigue

7-4 Rosenbloom over Carpentier


Johnson, Lewis, Carpentier go into the "F" list...

BoxBuzz do a simulation on McTigue-Maxim to determine who moves on into the next rounds 8)

Foster would look like he's been slow-motioned if he faced Jones. Kinda like Jones-Hall.
