Lloyd Marshall vs. Tiger Jack Fox

Two big punchers, one orthodox, the other unorthodox. Who takes it?

I'm tentativly putting forward Fox by stoppage, based on the sometimes apathetic, sometimes chinny, performances of Marshall, coupled with the assumption that the wilder punching and more instinctive defense of Marshall puts him at a disadvantage.

But thats very tentative, highly speculative and probably underestimating Lloyd Marshall due to some vague 'psychological' insight that he might not perform to his fullest capacity. Marshall could jsut as well turn up in the explosive form of 'that' fight we can see of him in against Charles, so....

It's a compelling fight, for sure. Both have some pretty impressive wins.

I think Marshall is just better and walks away with an easy decision, like Barrera over Hamed.

"Easy"? I dunno Red. While I don't underrate Marshall, Tiger Jack Fox is one of the most lethal light-heavyweights in history. Look at some of those names on his resume. That guy was no easy day at the office for anyone. Especially for a guy like Marshall, who liked to get in there and test your firepower. It could prove fatal against a guy like Fox.

In retrospect this is a harder match than I made it out to be. Still think, based on description of Fox, that Marshall is too skilled.
