Bob Fitzsimmons vs Joe Calzaghe

[Ivich]

Oh c'mon fellas. Go on youtube and see how often Joe was cold-****ed early and put down. Fitz would walk right through him and once he had him hurt--which he surely would--he'd end it. Fitz was also a top notch technician who could adopt to styles. Consider what he did to Jeffries--55 lbs bigger and ten years younger--when he was 41 (and 41 then is biostatistically 60 one hundred years later). Joe would be running for his life and those slapsie punches would not give Fitz ANY concern. Jim Corbett was only 30 and the exact same age as Fitz when they fought. He was an excellent boxer and 20lbs bigger (mid80s)and Fitz owned him.

Jeffries was 38lbs heavier for their 1 st fight and 47lbs heavier for their 2nd.
Fitz was 39
Corbett was 3 years younger than Fitz and 17lbs heavier.
Corbett was ahead when Fitz landed his solar plexus shot.

Fitz wins in his era under his conditions, and Joe wins in his era under his conditions...simples...
