Johnson would murder him within 6rds
    You sound as if you are inclined to agree with Nat Fleischer's strongly held belief that Jack Johnson was the #1 heavyweight of all time. Unusually, Blackburn. Joe Louis' teacher and trainer, felt the same way, that Johnson would have beaten Louis very easily.

    I incline to the same, putting him if not #1, in the top 3 or 4.
