15 Rounds Middleweight Bout

If there was a rematch between Griffith and Carter, I believe Griffith would not give the Hurricane any space to land a swing against him and controlled the ring by out-boxing him with sharp jabs and combinations to take a decision. What do you guys think and who do you got?

I think Griffith would've won a wide UD if they had fought 9 other times.

His getting KO'd by Carter was surely a fluke I'd say based on the resumes of the two, and I'd think there'd be a minimal chance of it happening again even in several rematches.

The great Emile Griffith is getting a lot of love and attention lately in this forum. And that is very, very good! :TU:

In a rematch, he beats the Hurricane. Griffith was the better fighter.
