    Hurts me to say it, but I think Willard might win it.

    Not for me.I think Bob would circle the giant and place his punches where he wanted.
    I think it would be a God awful experience for Jess,he would be shipping tremendous punishment and floundering after 7/8rds.Painful to watch.

    I'm more confident in fitzsimmons ability to hurt Willard than the other way round. I think it takes a bit "longer than Dempsey but Fitz stops the big guy in ten rounds.
