    Default Felix Savon vs Teofilio Stevenson

    The battle of the cubans
    Both are big, quick men, with counterpunching ability and footwork to spare. while Stevenson was fluid with power, Felix was a more unorthodox, awkward type fighter who also had incredible power.
    I felt Savon had the better competition (Tua, Ibragimov, Brewster, Briggs, Izon, the list goes on) and still did amazingly well.
    Stevenson also had great competition including guys like Bobick.

    That all being said who would win a 12 round fight between these two? I know most people favor Teofilio, but I think thats mainly because he cast the first, and biggest shadow in the cuban boxing. He was their national hero. I personally think they match up pretty evenly.

    Neither would ever fight in a 12 rounder.

    Under old amateur scoring Stevenson would win.
    Current amateur scoring Savon would win.

    What about under professional rules/scoring? I think I would just sneak a Stevenson win!

    Old amateur rules were a lot closer to professionalism so I think Stevenson.
