15 Rounds Heavyweight Bout
Like Ali, Folley and Ellis, Mathis would move away from Ringo behind his quick left jabs and combinations while knocking Ringo down along the way to take a decision. What do you guys think and who do you got?

Remember if you watched Mathis boxed he move around like the bigger version of Ali and the 1960s version of Tony Tubbs and Greg Page. This was why at his best Mathis would box like Ali, Ellis and Folley by jabbing and countering Ringo in order to prevent him from attacking on the inside. By keeping Ringo at long range behind his jabs and combinations, Mathis would take a decision like I said earlier. Anyways, that's your opinion.

And against Ali himself Mathis showed, that his shuffle was no worse.
