The Boxing Palace's Greatest Ever Light-Heavyweight Tournament (Final 4)

Just vote for who you think would win each fight if both fighters were at their peak in a 12 round fight.

1. Ezzard Charles vs Bob Foster
2. Gene Tunney vs Sam Langford

charles- i actually think that charles wins via KO in the later rounds pretty easily.
tunney- tough fight for tunney but i think that he outboxes the game langford.

1. Ezzard Charles vs Bob Foster

Me exactly.

Its a shame that Spinks didnt make the final. He was THE man in the GREATEST and DEEPEST era of the division. For my money, Spinks is the man in this divison. Only guy I think might beat him is Charles and maybe Tunney. Conn would be an interesting fight too.

The fights have been 1 sided.

1. Ezzard Charles 4-0 Bob Foster
2. Gene Tunney 4-0 Sam Langford
