Both were inconsistent, while Page suffered more from that problem. Page was lazier inside the ring too. Dokes had superior handspeed and power, which would become crucial. Dokes would stop Page.

Either one by decision or late round stoppage. If there were the series between Dokes and Page, then Page may take a 2-1 win over Dokes.

Page was faster, Dokes was quicker, but Page was more solid boxer. Page by strong UD.

The late great Jack Kearns Jr. used to explain it thusly: a train moving down a track is going fast; a man who jumps to the side to avoid the train moved quickly.

However, I disagree that Page was faster and Dokes was quicker.

Would you rather be able to move as fast as a train, or be quick enough to jump out of its way?

Michael had an explosive gear that Greg didn't have. But Greg had a better beacon than Michael.
