Jess Willard (Johnson fight) vs Tex Cobb (Holmes fight)

We do it 20 rounds, in 75 degree indoor arena. 1940 rules (except for the 20 round aspect of course) and gloves...how does it go.

For me Willard would take a decision.

Willard easy. The day he fought Jj Willard was fit to fight any man in the world. Cobb really was nothing more than a two legged punching bag....no punch just great durability. Willard had a huge punch with his right hand. Its tough to envision Cobb being stopped but over 20 rounds......it then becomes a possibility.

I think this is the first time i've seen Willard pretty much unanimously picked in a fantasy match up and the first time ive picked him to win

Willard's telescopic jab piles up the points against the ultra durable but severely limited Tex to take a clear decision.
