In a 15 round bout between two defensive and shoulder roll masters who would win in a 15 round bout?

Don't these two look exactly alike.

Floyd is a more skillful fighter and has allowed him to have success at higher weights, but H2h at the lower weights, Gan would be a very tough out,, I actually think it would be kinda a snoozer, and i think floyd would do just enough to outpoint him in a very tactical and sometimes boring fight

So is this thread

[Humean]

Gans was ahead of his time but not so far ahead that he'd stand much of a chance against Mayweather. Probably not particularly competitive.

That's a photo of Baby Joe Gans, who fought in the 1930s. This is the original Joe Gans, whom you're speaking of.



Looks a bit like Chico Corrales, IMO!

What size ring, rules, and refs are we using. That's a huge factor.
