Bonecrusher usually showed a pretty good chin. I think he'd absorb some big shots from Earnie in the early going, and Earnie would tire around the 6th round, and start having a hell of a hard time making it through the rounds from there.

I think Smith would stop Shavers around the 9th or 10th round.

Sounds about right.
