15 Rounds Heavyweight Bout

Prime for prime, both men would have a jabfest in the early rounds, but Holmes would use his quicker jabs and neutralize Young's defense with good right hands combinations off the ropes and the center of the ring to take a decision. What do you guys think and who do you got?

Holmes does just about everything better. Jab is superior, he uses it more, and he's a much better combination puncher. Young in his prime is too good defensively to be stopped, but this is a clear 5-6 pt win for Holmes.

Jabfest of 15 rounds in favor of Larry.

Greg Page beat Jimmy Young primarily with the jab, briefly going southpaw on Jimmy successfully early. Larry does a repeat performance, strong UD win.
