Thoughts gentlemen?????

Stevenson was before my time so idk. I didn't see him fight THAT many times

I probably seen 20-30 Savon fights on the other hand. I think Savon woulda made a good pro if he turned pro after his 92 gold medal (25ish years old iirc). I think he woulda won or contended for the HW title at the very least.

Mighta had some epic fights with guys like Tyson, Lennox & the Klitschko brothers if he adapted well to the pros. Thats the thing with some of these amateur guys. They sometimes get so into that amateur game their pro style progress gets stunted, but if he had turned pro after 92 I think he'd be less likely to have had issues adapting.
