    I remember you man from the 15 fights thread, you liked my list. I thought you were cool, and still do. Walker was a great fighter but Steele was ahead of his time,, I yhink hed win a clear decision cause Walker ain't as polishd and grit only gets him so farrrr

    Walker not polished? The decision would be hard fought, and not totally clear.

    I don't think he's a polished as Steele is, and by clear I mean like 9-6, 10-5, it wouldn't be easy, but it would be clear who won.

    After evaluating the film of Steele vs Apostolli, I think Steele has some stylistic problems with fighters like Walker (and I know of Steele's injury in the second).

    I think Steele wins something akin to 8 - 7 in a great fight.
