Lamotta takes Jackson's best shots and stops him late or wins a wide decision.

Much respect to Jackson, but LaMotta knocks him out late.

Jackson would never be the same after this fight. LaMotta would ruin him.

Hmm, not sure anybody takes his best shots...he's got a punchers chance, but I'm guessing it's Lamotta's fight barring any seriously nuclear moment.

Jackson undoubtedly had that one punch "eraser" type power, but I think Lamotta could take it anyway. Aside from that, Lamotta would be all over him, rarely giving him room to punch or time to breathe.

Lamotta wins. Off of skill. Doubt Lamotta could take his best shots but he was definitely the better boxer .

LaMotta took the best shots from one of the hardest hitting 168/175 pounders of all time in Bob Satterfield. I'm quite certain he could take Jackson's punches, and this is coming from someone who really rates Jackson as a puncher. McClellan took them, after all.

Yep, like I said, barring a nuclear moment. It's an outside puncher's chance only. But it's a chance never the less.

No contest, LaMotta would mutilate him. Jackson's power wasn't the same at 60.

Cripes I was sleepin' I'm just waking up to the weight issue......that "chance" just withered from "fat or slim" to none, in my estimation.
