Put the Middleweight Robinson just before his initial retirement into the ring with the John Ruiz of 2002.
I just wonder about an all time great (possibly greatest) fighting an average type Heavyweight. Obviously the talent difference is amazing, but what happens when a guy who is 160 lbs fights a decent 235 lb fighter?
I think Robinson drops him with a body shot in round 9, and Ruiz works it into a DQ win by claiming it's a low blow.

Come on man.
Robinson weighed like 157 1/2 when he challenged for the light heavy title. He ain't getting over 160 no matter who he fights, and there's only one Sam Langford.
Hey, I loved watching these Lt Heavyweight slap Ruiz in 2003-2005. Sue me. 
I'd want to see Middleweight do it.
My next pick is going to be a Welterweight Thomas Hearns.

Lol Ruiz by suffocation.
Ruiz was more gifted physically so I gotto with him.
