    I thought Cobb actually edged Michael Dokes in their first meeting, though some might disagree. And Michael Dokes was a young hot commodity in his prime with fast hands and good boxing skill.. He might even have deserved the nod in the Norton fight, even though Ken was shot. Winning a decision here isn't out of the question for Tex.

    I think it would be a good competitive fight. I think Mavoric wins a close decision based on landing the more effective eye-catching combinations. I think Cobb makes it a really close fight with his workrate and pressure.

    yes I agree,

    who comes up with these match ups, too funny, lol,

    Cant see a knock out between these two guys, I see Zeijko being capable of wining more rounds

    Quirky matchup here, I think TeX would have been to big and strong for him, and would have beat him up and roughed him up over a 15 round fight, don't see this ending in a stoppage, but Cobb on points..

    Cobb's superior chin and level of competition he has faced, makes this an easier pick..

    Wow boring match up. Mavrovic would have outboxed Cobb. He had good footwork and liked to run.
