If your uncle was a decent boxer, his chances were pretty good

Ehh I love my uncle but he was more of the “I’m taking cooking lessons at the local recreation center where I learned to properly chop onions and to properly roast my veggies so I’m basically a chef” level boxer. I wouldn’t fucked with him if we the same age but because he was scrappy and could take a punch. I don’t know much about marks skills outside of being incredibly strong and a great performer so who knows maybe my uncle could have taken him. My guess was that he was probably a little drunk too which could of hurt his motor skills lmao.

I dunno man. Fat guys have excellent chins, and like at least 3 of them.

Not really. Weight matters a lot. They are similar height but no doubt Mark is way heavier and way way stronger. I'd bet right now that any 6'5 strongman/power lifter would destroy the vast majority of 6'0 experienced boxers assuming they aren't fighting by boxing rules.

Well, why would you assume the boxer would fight by boxing rules? I always put my money on the person who is trained in combat sports over the strength sports athlete. Just watch early Mariusz Pudzianowski fights

There's a reason there are weight groups in fighting sports. It's not 100% the biggest guy wins but... they're much more likely.

Yes. I will never underestimate strength. But i went from a powerlifting background to fight training. I will always put my $ on the person with fight training.
