      I was thinking about Tarver KO2 as well.

      Oh and Roy. Timing > Speed.

      Gene Tunney has great timing.

        Not really on his place in History, it's just on if he thinks he could beat the great past Light Heavies and all he answers is "I'm too quick, speed".

        Imo Spinks and Charles beat him out of those named, not sure on Foster.

              Imagine the Tarver KO2 but with Bobby Foster in there instead.

              I think Tunney, Charles, Spinks and maybe Qawi beat him.

              Speed helps but it doesnt assure victory. A smart fighter can beat a fast one. And its hard to find smarter fighters than Tunney and Charles @ LHW.

                  I think it's abit narrow minded when asked why you would beat these ATG's his only reply is speed.

                  Speed alone is not going to beat all of those guys.

                  Not saying Roy couldn't but he could have atleast expanded on his opinion.

                  And for the record I don't see Roy beating Spinks, Charles or Foster.

                    LOL you people. He says speed because he has every other concievable skill. As you all know i have a tough time seeing any body from the 50s or whatever beating any great modern fighter.

                    Roy knocks Spinks out with ease Spinks main weapon was speed when he realizes not only is he the slower fighter but WAAAAY slower its all over. Roy knocks him out late.

                    Foster is tough because height like power is an equalizer. Roy always had the right gameplan(fight a boxer, box a fighter) though so he would be agressive but I think it would probable be a close decision Roy breaks him down to the body.

                    LOL Qawi gets shutout.
