Having said this, Johnson was clearly a great athlete who could adapt. Perhaps he could have adapted extremely well to the new boxing styles of the 20th century and the rules, particularly the larger gloves and shorter amount of rounds. But I think these threads are not made that way, it's essentially plucking a HW from his own era exactly the way he was and having him fight a different opponent from another era.
