Marciano-Lewis is the only really intriguing first round match-up. Most of the rest of them are solid B-listers vs. ATG's or just a pair of B-listers.Comment

It was a random list. The matches get more intriguing as they go to the next few rounds.Originally posted by AmericanYeti View PostComment

Here is my bracket. I may have been a little generous to Roy Jones, and i'm sure a alot of people will think me having Johnson over Lewis and Bowe is a bit extreme, but Johnson in his prime was an unbeatable fighter who can negate the long reach and powerful jab of both Lewis and Bowe with his ability to slip punches and parry. I can also see him frustrating Bowe nearly to the point of giving up.
As for Roy I just think that the heavyweight version that beat Ruiz would be too fast for Wlad, and his style would be all wrong for Norton. Holyfield presents the toughest challenge, but Roy with his reflexes would probably be a hard target for Holyfield to pressure, and could probably pot shot his way to a split decision.
And I agree that Ezzard Charles vs. Floyd Patterson is a very tough call. Probably the most intriguing matchup of all.

Interesting you would favor Jack Dempsey to beat Mike Tyson? Perhaps it's my lack of Dempsey fights I have watched(Only four ashamedlyOriginally posted by poet682006 View Post
) but I would favor that Dempsey and Tyson would both try to wade in and tee of on the other, but from what I have seen Tyson appears to be a tad quicker with his punches and a quite a bit more fluid in his hips at dipping with punches. I'm curious to hear on what your view on how Dempsey would up-end Tyson?
