EDIT: I'VE MOVED IT TO THE HISTORY SECTION. PLEASE REPLY THERE.

Mayweather vs. Nelson. Lighweight championship.

Old school rules:

4 ounce horse-hair gloves.
It's a fight to the finish. (50 rounds.)
Weigh-in at fight time in the ring.

The slick Mayweather facing off against the toughest fighter the world have ever seen. Nelson fought the great Joe Gans 3 times. Lost the first by DQ in round 42 and won the following 2 fights by knock-out.

Who takes it?

Doesn't Mayweather's training camp include sparring like 20 rounds a day? or something like that..Well anyways idk who this Nelson guy is so I won't vote but he sounds like a tough s.o.b.

He took arguably the worst beatings in boxing history but kept coming back for more.

This guy went 42 rounds in the scorching heat of Goldfield Nevada with the old master Joe Gans. In the end he was bleeding and battered beyond recognition and fouled with a low blow that left Gans unable to continue.

The big question is if Mayweather could fight 40 rounds. There's no way he'll knock Nelson out. Nelson was known as the durable dane for a reason.

Here's a portrait of Nelson at the end of his fighting career. He's face bears testament of all the punishment he received:

Mayweather destroys that relic.
