Mismatch really?
How when Greb beat a HW Champion in Tunney, who some even consider a ATG HW. And he beat numerous top HW contenders and HW title challagers and was ducked by the HW champ in Dempsey.

I think if you were to see what the disparity between a 158 Lb guy and an in shape 230 Lb guy really looks like in a ring; you might change your mind.
Buster was fast, powerful, showed excellent mobility and had an incredible reach. Its a joke to even suggest that Greb would have had a chance. I don't think that the Tunney fights mean anything in relation to this thread.
Tunney is one of my all time favorites......and one of the best heavyweight technicians ever. But I wouldn't fancy even his chances against that Buster Douglas. At 182 Lbs as a heavyweight, I'd venture that he would be too small too.
Sometimes being a greater legend of the sport, with a greater resume means little in terms of head to head matches. There are a whole host of heavyweight legends that I wouldn't throw in the ring with in shape, motivated versions of the likes of Buster Douglas, Rid**** Bowe or Ike Ibeabuchi.
