Jeffries bites the bullet and signs to fight Ezzard Charles .Maybe assuming that Ezzard s just a blown up ,past his best fighter ,one that won't beat him over the long distance ? So ..Charles of the Joe Louis fight v JJJ of the Fitz rematch ?
Come on man lol Ezzard Charles very few fighters had the complete package but boy could he box, punch and was tough as nails.. thats my pick
Bad matchup for Charles, after being ahead on the scorecards in round 15, he starts to falter and Jeffries either stops him in the 20-25th rounds or takes a UD
Charles could be hit. He would lead on the cards earlier, but he aint winning over 25. Jeffries would wear him down.
The thing is ,your right ..Charles did have it all ,more so has middle and light heavy I'd say .If this was a 15 round I'd say Charles by unanimous ,but there's added pressure being 25 .That's when Jeffries gets the advantage imo .Truth is I still think Ezz gets the decision ,but it's not a walk in the park by the end ,
Big possibility of that .Charles easily the more skilled but it's a gruelling length and Charles might get himself pulled in to Jeffries type of stuff .
He couldn't manage it with Sharkey in two tries.One over 20 and one over 25.Just something to ponder.
Some people forget how hard Ezzard hit, I like him to stop Johnson just after 15, His defence was quick and his hands quicker I think he could pull of a TKO after realising he can't out muscle Jefferies, he'll box and hurt him at some point then finish him off. Charles TKO
