Lyle's, Pick'em Hypothetical Fights

[ICB]

(1) Shane suffered a concussion from the headbutt sustained moments before he was caught with a nice right hand by vernon, and still managed to avoid being stopped. Only been down once in his career, only seriously hurt that one time as well against 50 pro fights with a who's who's of his generation. NEVER BEEN STOPPED.

Hearns stopped by barkley,SRL, and hagler. Knocked down a hand full of times. Yet somehow he would manage to stop SHANE

At 147 Shane puts hearns to sleep late by crowding and over powering him all night. That's the not even prime shane. The shane that fought Oscar in the first fight would destroy any version of hearns.

(2) Bowe who has never been stopped, out fought evander twice. (which probably shortened his career) against tyson who only came to fight when he knew his opponent was beaten before the fight. He lost to everyone from his generation. KO'ed in his prime against douglass. Probably the most overrated heavy of all time. Would lose a UD to Bowe.

as far as the others..

I take JCC over sanchez

and duran over arguello...Alexis didn't have the pop to keep duran off of him and would have been stopped late.

Alexis Arguello didn't have the pop to keep Roberto Duran off ? are you kidding me ? Alexis Arguello was a great puncher who still hit very hard at Lightweight, and it would be the hardest puncher Roberto Duran fought at Lightweight.

Alexis had pop, but duran was too strong down there, just like shane. Not to mention duran was faster at that weight, not faster than alexis but duran's skillset was maxed at lightweight, he took shots from legitimate WWs and MWs, arguello was stopped twice by a JMW...

Alexis Arguello was past his prime against Aaron Pryor, we are talking about a prime Alexis Arguello here. And Aaron Pryor's 1st win over Alexis Arguello is tainted.

Because Alexis Arguello seemed to be coming on, in the later rounds like he often did. Until Aaron Pryor had the mysterious black bottle, which gave him energy.

And secondly that has nothing to do with a match up, between Alexis Arguello/Roberto Duran at Lightweight. Also just because Roberto Duran moved up in weight, and took some good punches.

Doesn't mean Alexis Arguello couldn't hurt him, or possibly stop him. Remember Roberto Duran was dropped like a sack twice, against Esteban De Jesus at Lightweight who isn't that big of a puncher.

Plus Alexis Arguello has a big reach and height advantage, so he could catch Roberto Duran coming in at mid-distance where he done his best work. With his perfect straight right hands which could knockdown a brickwall.

Alexis Arguello loved fighters that come towards him, which is why after Roberto Duran gets hurt early by Alexis Arguello. He would box smart and win a closish decision IMO.

Im not saying Roberto Duran would lose, all im saying is that he couldn't just come forward walking through Alexis Arguello's, best punches especially with Alexis Arguello's big reach advantage. Plus he hits too hard and Roberto Duran would of found that out very early.
