    Shot Fighters being beaten by "live" fighters. Prime vs. Prime pick...

    The one thing that bothers me about a "legend" fighting on past his prime, especially when they are shot, is the nonsense you hear from people like "See, I told you so...this is how it would have always been," while forgetting how good the fighter was at their Peak/Prime.

    So, here are some fights and feel free to add.

    Jack Johnson vs. Jeffries

    Jack Johnson vs. Willard

    Dempsey vs. Tunney

    Marciano vs. Louis

    Clay vs. Liston {arguably past his prime}

    Ali {arguably past his peak} vs. Frazier

    Ali vs. Holmes

    Holmes {past his prime} vs. Tyson

    Tyson {past his peak} vs. Douglas

    Tyson vs. Lewis {both past their prime/Tyson shot}

    Tyson vs. Holyfield {both past their prime}

    Tszyu vs. Hatton

    Mayweather vs. Oscar

    Leonard vs. Hagler {arguably past his peak}

    Joe Calzaghe vs. Hopkins {both past their peak, Hopkins past his prime}

    Roy Jones Jr. vs. Joe Calzaghe {Roy shot, Joe past his peak}

      Marciano vs. Louis

      Louis would of had an easy night with Rocky imo
      Marciano would be stopped if he fought a prime Joe Louis.

      Ali vs. Holmes

      Holmes ud i think Ali is very overrated and Holmes is very underrated
      Ali would go the distance but he would be outboxed.

      Holmes vs. Tyson

      Tyson is a hype job and Holmes would play with him.

      Tyson vs. Lewis

      Lewis knocks any version of Tyson out because he's just bigger and better

      Tyson vs. Holyfield

      Same i think Holyfield would bully and beat down any version of Tyson
      his names been mentioned so many times already
      it just goes to show how overrated he was and still is.

      Tszyu vs. Hatton

      Hatton points because Tszyu does not like that style
      it was a bad style clash for Tszyu even though he's the better fighter imo.

      Mayweather vs. Oscar

      Mayweather ud the lower in weight it goes the more onesided it gets in favor of Floyd.
