Answer 2

OK here are dream matches made by myself, if all fighters were in there Prime..who wud be triumphant in all these bouts...

1)Muhammed Ali V Rocky Marciano - Muhammad Ali by Late round KO - because just like the Ali Tyson fight. Ali's jab would keep both sluggers at bay and his superior boxing skills throwing quick punches at angles would keep Rocky off balance.

2)Tommy 'The Hitman' Hearns V Roy Jones Jr.- Roy Jones - Majority Decison - I see this being a battle to the finish and one of the judges scoring it too close to call (a draw) and the other 2 for Jones by one or 2 points. Roy Jones Jr in his prime was almost unbeatable. Even though im from Detroit as Hearns is and i usually stick up for my home town folks and Emanuel Steward is the man, I see Roy Jones outclassing him. I see Hearns keeping his left hand by his waist as usual and Roy's speed taking advantage. Well one good way to compare the 2 is Virgil Hill. They both fought him and both beat him but Roy KO'd him in the 4th. Hearnes had trouble earning a UD.

3)Jake la mota V Floyd Mayweather (Light Middleweight Fight) - Jake Lamotta - 9th round KO - Even though Floyd has GREAT defense, i see Jake being way too tough for the pretty boy and Jake taking all of Floyds punches and leaving Floyd face up on his back looking at the ceiling.

4)Jack Johnson V George Foreman - Foreman UD - I see the Foreman after his comeback (40 Years old) doing better than the Young Foreman in that, the 40 year old foreman had more heart and could take a hit. Theres no way i think the young foreman could last a whole fight with Hoyfield.

5)Lennox Lewis V Sonny Liston - One by Split decison- I See Lennox's great straights canceling out with Listons knock out jab for a great fight. But im not sure who would take the W on that one.

6)Mike Tyson V Joe Frazier - Tyson 5th Round KO - Tyson in his prime brought that feeling to the ring that he was invincible, and backed it up. As Tommy Morrison said on ESPN Classic, fighters get tougher every generation. I see both men going for a slug fest and Tyson being the stronger fighter of the 2, i see Tyson taking Frazier to the floor. Frazier had an amazing body attack but so did Tyson and Tyson's punches are harder. "Kill the body and the head will follow"

7)Sugar Ray Leanord V Carmen Basilio - Basilo UD - Basilo Took Robinson to a Split decision and i dont say Leanord being able to last a whole fight with Robinson. Thats all im going off of.

8)Rubin Hurricane Carter V Sugar Ray Robinson - Sugar Ray UD - Sugar Ray Robinson - Best Ever Pound for Pound HANDS DOWN. thats all i have to say. Even though Denzel Washington did a good acting job in portraying Rubin Carter.

9)Bernard Dunne V Barry McGuigan (two great irish boxers)
Finaly 10) Joe Louis V Jack Dempsey - Loe Jouis Ko 12th round - Joe Louis is my detroit boy

Answer 3

There are a lot of great fights on your list but there is one fight I would sell my house to see and that would be the Hearns v. Jones Jr. fight this would be one of the greatest fights of all time Both fighters have size speed boxing skills and power it would boil down to hit who first because both fighters were great finishers I would pick Hearns because Jones never fought any one with the hit mans skill set I see Jones having problems getting inside and when ge did Tommy could fight inside with the best of them and I think Roy Jones Jr. is the best fighter That I have ever seen that includes Ali , Ray Leonard I wounder who would be the favorite

Answer 4

1. Ali by dec. jabbing and moving, Ali doesn't want to get hit by Marciano.

2. Hearns by dec. or KO Hearns, unlike alot of fighters, retained his KO power as he moved up in weight

3. draw, both fighters have the skills to nullify the other

4. Johnson by decision. This goes against my initial feeling of Foreman by knock out. I think Johnson would be able to out box Foreman. Johnson was able to avoid getting hit and was a good defensive fighter.

5. Liston was one of the most feared heavyweights. Lewis seemed to be able to take a punch. In an upset Lewis by decision.

6. Prime Frazier he has to be prime to take dec. against Tyson. Frazier on points.

7. Leonard by decision. Leonard had the skills to win this fight .

8. Robinson by unanimous decision. Robinson had too much skill for Carter.

9. McGuigan by dec. Dunne would be out boxed by McGuigan

10. Louis by decision. Dempsey would last until the end but he would lose. Louis seemed to get stronger as fights went on.



Great bouts.

Answer 5

1) i would have to say muhammed ali over marciano, marciano had trouble with an old archie moore who was very slick, and ali in his prime would have been even more elusive. ali by dec.

2) Tommy was not at his best at middleweight, he was at welterweight, so i'm gonna have to go with roy jones by knockout. hearns had a pretty bad chin, and jones at middleweight was a monstrous puncher. jones by ko.

3) this is hard cause floyd hasn't fought at jr middleweight yet and lamotta usually fought at middleweight. but i would have to favor floyd because he is an excellent defensive fighter, and even though i don't like him that much, i would pick him to win a hard fought decision over lamotta. floyd by dec.

4) a very good matchup, but i would favor george foreman. foreman in his prime was probably one of the hardest punchers in boxing. a 44yr old foreman was still knocking people out. i would pick foreman to knockout johnson. foreman by ko.

5) i would pick lennox lewis. lewis was a big heavyweight, he was 6'6 and usually weighed around 240-250 whereas liston was only 6' i think, and usually weighed around 220. liston was very slow and powerful, but lewis had an excellent jab and would keep the shorter liston at bay with it, and eventually knockout liston. liston would have a punchers chance but thats about it. lewis by ko.

6) this is a very interesting fight because both fighters were agressive and used head movement to get inside and attack you. but frazier relied a lot his left hook to attack. tyson had one punch knockout power in both hands, and could throw any punch in the book. this would be a great fight for a couple of rounds, but i see tyson just overwhelming frazier with his more agressive style and with his speed and power. tyson by ko.

7) i haven't seen basilio to make an educated guess on this so i'm gonna leave this one alone.

8) well, no offense to carter but he wasn't that good. his only good win was against emile griffith. i see robinson either winning by ko or by a wide unanimous decision. srr by dec or ko.

9) i haven't seen any fighter fight so i don't know.

10) jack dempsey was a good agressive fighter with a lot of power, but i can see joe louis outboxing him. louis was a very technically sound fighter plus he had power, but dempsey had a good chin, so i don't know if louis can stop him. louis by dec.

Answer 6

i love all of those tournament united statesexcept for Tito VS Lidell a 0.33 time. Why would i favor to be sure Lidell whoop Tito's *** back? right it is my dream card: Jon Jones VS Rampage. Brock Lesner VS Bobby Lashly. Anderson Silva VS Shogun. GSP VS Jake Shields. Brett Roger VS King Mo. Fedor VS Loyoto Machida. Randy Couture VS Rashad Evans.
