I wanna see any matchup involving Daley-Alves-A. Johnson

I don’t care what two are fighting I want to see any of those 3 matched up against each other.

alves is a huge guy in his weight class…..i think he puts Daley away. i’m not saying Daley has only fought cans, but Alves would buzzsaw him.

Gatti. Dekkers. Pele. Aoki. Kang. Vanderlei. Basillio. Harry Greb.

agreed.

I think Alves would take him out. I mean, you gotta pick alves he’s beaten the best short of gsp. Daley has beaten no one.

Any of those fights would be very interesting, johnson has dynamite in his hands but of all the three guys I think daley is the most technical boxer, and alves obviously the best at muay thia. Daley hasn’t faced a good striker as far as I know, IMO alves was outboxed by lytle in the first round, this could be a very interesting fight, would love to see any of these guys brawl.

I Think Alves

would take this one,fairly easily, ithink hes just too big and strong for daley, and i dont really care for eaither guy, but i think alves’s muay tai would be a kittke too much for Daley
