You probably never seen any footage from that time period, so you are not fit to talk about that era.

Actually i have, dude ur an idiot. Stop trying to act like you know it all, everyone that i have talked to say that when you first joined this forum, u were so clueless when it came to boxing in general. In those days boxing lacked fundamantles, it was basically streetfighting in a ring. You dont form your own opinion on anything, you just look up random websites and see what other people say about a fighter. Everyone else was basically saying you are a joke when you thought johnson would have beaten bowe, you still wont get it.

As far as Ezzard Charles IMO one of the best light heavyweights, and also a very good heavyweight.....P4P at least top15.......

No, I watch films of fighters. You don't. You just believe the old jargon that old fighters were people who just slugged it out until one person fell. You even said that Ali was the first defensive fighter, that says it all. So I suppose their was no defensive fighting before 1960, huh? Lol. Again, I will ask you to go watch film and then argue about this instead of making yourself look like a fool.

more like 3, its common knowledge what the outcome would have been if johnson and bowe fought.

Common knowledge. Yo have not proved this yet to be so, so how did this all of a sudden turn into common knowledge?

Defensive boxing in todays era is completely different. Jack Johnson loved going inside, the inside is bowe's world. Jack Johnson was clinching, throwing single punches, not combos. He didnt beat guys that were on bowe's level, no where close. His chin is weaker than bowe's, rid**** wouldnt lose to johnson's style of fighting.
