15 Rounds Heavyweight Bout

Ellis would use the ring to jab and land great combinations to take a decision over "Smokin' Bert Cooper, who wouldn't be "Smokin" like his mentor. What do you guys think and who do you got?

Ellis by UD.

Ellis could outbox Cooper, but he was from perfection, while Cooper at his best was dangerous, so an upset wouldn't be shocking. I'd pick Ellid by confident dec more often than not.

Jimmy Ellis.
