I gotta take Merciless Ray here. It's a lot to ask for his chin to hold up to Shavers right hand, but I think Ray was tough enough to hang in there even when absorbing some wicked shots. It'd be a brutal war through 6 rounds, and I feel like Mercer's superior conditioning would win out down the stretch.
