    Do fans of other sports talk so much about this sorta sci fi fantasy sh^t as boxing fans do? Are boxing fans more or less into sci fi fantasy sh^t than other sports fans?

    As to the OP they'd either do better or worse than they are currently doing I imagine.

      Only person on that list the either stand a chance against is Hopkins imo.
      Jacobs has the body frame to compete in that era though.

        They got more to talk about because their teams play more than twice a year

          Gingers werent really tolerated in the 80s though, dont think the ban was lifted til mid 90s. Only ginger I ever see back in that era was that Rocky Dennis

                  Not only that...do fans of other sports ask how opponents of a certain team would do in fantasy match ups, with the real agenda being to passive aggressively take a shot at that team?

                    He would certainly have struggled to hit 160 with fight day weigh ins.

                    Did they have diuretics back in the 80/90s? I know all the top fighters were on roids back then, not sure about weight cut drugs doe.
