Frans Botha versus Lou Savarese

[goose 5]

12 rounds.

These are matched evenly enough. I can see anyone winning a close decision, maybe controversial, but most likely in a dull bout.

botha wins a competitive but clear decision

[Cutman Scabbers]

Edging toward big Lou in this one.

What was Botha's best win/performance:

Mike Hunter?
Axel Schulz?
Draw vs. Shannon Briggs?
Mike Tyson until the big right?

Botha mixed it up with more top guys, but big Lou got the W vs.:

Buster Mathis Jr.
Buster Douglas (he did well against Busters)
Lance Whitaker
Tim Witherspoon

Sure Witherspoon and Douglas weren't at their best.

Common opponent: Botha was beating Michael Grant on the cards in 2011 before being stopped in the 12th.
Savarese lost by wide margin over 10 -- but that was way back in 1999.

Botha had more umph, but I could see Lou edging this, probably on points.

Botha...pretty easily.
