RE: Heavyweight Division - diehard - 12-05-2022
Big difference between JP and Wilder's punches. I'm picking Wilder, but damn, JJ's punches could get to Wilder before he hits the money shot. Yeah, the smart option is to face the winner of Fury/Usyk. That's what I'd do.

Colonel: Fury beats Ali, Lewis, Holmes
Colonel2By Ray Wheatley – World of Boxing
Hall of Fame broadcaster Colonel Bob Sheridan talks to Fightnews.com® about Tyson Fury, whom he says could be the greatest heavyweight of all time. The Colonel also talks about dream fights with Tyson Fury against other great heavyweights which include Muhammad Ali, Larry Holmes and Lennox Lewis.
“Because of Tyson Fury’s size, Muhammad Ali would box in the hallway and stay away from him. I am talking about the early Ali and not the one after the layoff. I think Ali would be able to stay away from Fury and box his ears off, but in the end if Fury hits him on the chin he is going. Fury could definitely knock Ali out. There were European fighters who had knocked down Ali.
“Lennox Lewis is a super, super fighter. He was very clever. He had a knack of pushing a guy’s head down like he did with the White Buffalo Frans Botha and knocked him out with one shot. Lennox Lewis has got to rate as one of the best heavyweights of all time. Lennox is a dear friend but I think Tyson Fury is something special. A freak of the day. Great racehorses and great athletes are freaks and Tyson Fury is one of them. Tyson Fury gets knocked down but he gets back up. Not a lot of heavyweights who get knocked down can get back up. Wilder put Fury down but he got up. And Wilder can punch.
“Getting up from a knockdown is the key and that is why I rated Larry Holmes as number one. I’ve seen him get knocked out in Pittsburg by Renaldo Snipes and at the count of three his eyes were rolling back in his head and his right foot was quivering but he got up to beat Renaldo. I’ve seen Larry get hit by Ernie Shavers, which everyone agrees is the best heavyweight puncher of all time and he beat him after being down and then the same thing happened against Mike Weaver. Larry got knocked out but got up to beat all three of them. At that time in history, no other super heavyweight had got off the canvas three times after being knocked out. That’s why I rated Larry Holmes as number one. Not the Larry Holmes that boxed Mike Tyson.
“I have Tyson Fury knocking Larry Holmes out. Tyson Fury is a freak of nature like Secretariat, who is a huge man who is super tough and a super great guy.
“Tyson Fury knocks out everybody, in my opinion, until he gets too old. He is the greatest fighter in the world today and could be the best heavyweight who ever lived.“

He does. We got rid of him commentating in NZ. Of course, we don't have any more televised telecasts in NZ either. As an aside, I like the dreadlock announcer on DAZN. Dalmonte or something like that.

Big Baby” Anderson chops down Forrest
Unbeaten WBC #15 heavyweight Jared “The Real Big Baby” Anderson (13-0, 13 KOs) stopped Jerry “Slugger” Forrest (26-5-2, 20 KOs) in round two of the Lopez-Martin co-feature on Saturday night at Madison Square Garden in New York City. Anderson took some shots from Forrest early, but he then opened up and battered Forrest toward the end of round one. After more punishment in round two, the bout was stopped by the referee. Time was 1:34.

Big Daddy Browne returns Saturday
By Ray Wheatley – World of Boxing
WBA #10 heavyweight Lucas “Big Daddy” Browne (31-3, 27 KOs) returns to action Saturday against former WBA regular champion Mahmoud Charr (33-4, 19 KOs) over twelve rounds at Motospace Dubai Investment Park in Dubai, United Arab Emirates.
Browne, also a former WBA champion, is coming off a spectacular first round knockout of Junior Fa in June. “I’ve got the power to knock anyone out in the world,” Browne said. “The problem is that I don’t throw it because I’m scared of hurting people. Not in the ring, I’m talking about sparring, so I’ve got into the habit of not throwing my right hand.”
