Charles wins a wide unanimous decision. 11 rounds to 4 or 12 rounds to 3. It's competitive in the early going, but as it goes along the greater skill and class of Charles begins to tell, and by the end the winner isn't the least bit in doubt.

Either the Cincinnati Cobra's handspeed and combinations or Page's size and long range jabs and combinations would take a decision.

Charles dominates until Page catches him around the 8th round and scores a KO.

I would lean with Greg Page in this fight. Although the great Ezzard Charles was one of the most complete boxers in history, the height, reach, punching power, speed and discrepancy in weight would favor Page. He got the speed of the Cincinnati Cobra and he would have won by knockout in ten rounds. Page was too big and talented for the Cincinnati Cobra.
