    Shavers wins this one quickly, Golota was wide open and couldn`t punch as hard as Shavers.

    Golota would panic and go over the top rope like a professional wrestler to escape Shaver's in short order. I can't imagine the man who bit Samson Pou'ha and fouled out against Bowe twice would stick around too long in this one.

    Shavers either knocks him out in one or Golota fearing for his life refuses to come out for the second round, then receives the crowd treatment he got ala the Tyson fight.

    I imagine this playing out exactly like the Tyson fight, as soon as shavers lands golatta is going to hit the canvas, take the 8 count, and then run away as people throw Hawaiian punch and hot dogs at him.

    Golata walks in and wades in as part of his offense. That's big big trouble against the hitters and that defense of his see's him ko'd. Just like the other hitters he faced. Same here. He'd walk into a Shavers bomb and it'd be over quickly.

    Most likely would be Shavers early. Golota would need to get in first.

    Which might happen too. Shavers wasn´t the most durable fighter.

    It's definitely no forgone conclusion.

    Surprised so many are going for Shavers here. I think Golota should take him out early, unless Shavers manages to hurt him or drag him into the later rounds, where the possibility of a meltdown of some description becomes much more feasible.

    Certainly isn't. Anything could happen in this one.
