Some mythical matchups.

Slightly out of scope but I was thinking about how a fight might give between Jack Johnson and James Toney, battling it out in pantaloons and gloves filled with horse hair or whatever.

I was about to say that I thought it was against the rules to have one of these threads without Toney involved.

Covered so many weight classes, a style that fits in any era, tough and slick...

Jack Johnson vs Archie Moore
Jack Johnson vs Floyd Patterson
Jack Johnson vs RJJ
Jack Johnson vs Bhop

And any amalgamation of those previously named fighters.

I have no idea who'd win in any of those, its all a toss up for me.

loving the randomness Good stuff Mick

For me, gotta go
Nunn...and I could never stand the guy...he's more patient, in a Ward like mold mentally and boxes very well long range. I think he actually takes it on cards with boos raining down.
Holmes...at best too sharp, too quick and too Holmes. Holmes wouldn't be sucked in and works off piston jab.
Spinks all day and night
I love me some Hopkins but.....gotta go Saad. Hopkins wouldn't have a patient portrait to be painted at lt. hvy with peak Saad who walked through literal meat grinders to come back to win. Hopkins wouldn't sit and grind enough to keep him at bay and if he did he'd be out hustled and outmuscled...me thinks.
Pryor over Bradley and I see Tim sitting in the seats via power combo punching of Pryor. He'd be game and forced to box out but vs Pryor he's throwing Nerf balls vs guy just as gritty and physical inside.
Gomez over Vasquez, eventually, and both wearing red masks. Never hook with a hooker.
