    Nice fight, I'd probably give Schmeling edge here. Late rounds stoppage, his right hand would finally start to land after rough beginning of the fight. Schmeling is just much more proven than Corbett and Corbett didn't have the power to stop him.

    I'll give Schmeling the edge, but it won't be easy for him. I think Corbett was a good deal better than Young Stribling
