How will Golota-the better fighter-react when he starts get tagged ? I suspect he bails; Sanders late tko.

Agreed as Sanders' southpaw style would give Golota a problem like his fight with Chris Byrd, but Sanders had more power to wear Golota down with right jabs and right-left combos before putting him away in the late rounds from 10 to 12.

Sanders could give Golota trouble early, but Corrie is one of the worst faders in heavyweight history. By about the 6th, Golota would be landing every jab on an almost defenseless Sanders leading to a TKO in the 7th or 8th rd.

If Golota brought his A+ game and did not have some sort of emotional collapse, then he would most likely win. That being said, he wasn't all that consistent so I think Sanders, if he brought his A+ game, would give the Polish heavyweight a lot of problems. A fight I would rather see than have to try to predict because both men had a lot of shortcomings and quite a few strengths that makes them practically even.

But if I had to pick a winner I would go with Golota, simply on the fact that I think he could outlast Sanders and come back to win the late rounds to get a decision or even stop the South African.

Volatile match. Out of Sander's 31 stoppage wins, 29 came within 3 rounds.

Golota could be shaky when caught early on. He also never fought a tall southpaw with hand speed and power like Sanders.

If Golota makes it past the fourth round, he has a chance, but I'd wager Sanders drops & stops him early.

That said, Golota did beat Corey Sanders.
