    I would make Schmeling the favorite, because both men are very clever, but Schmeling hits harder and excels at countering orthodox fighters.

    If you want to argue that it could go the other way, then I won't push back too hard.

    This is the closest I can get to re-enacting "Invasion of the Body Snatchers", so I'll take it.

    Are we supposed to talk of ourselves in the third person? There's a lot of league rules I may not be familiar with.

    If you can even name your avatar I would be slightly impressed.

    Otherwise, blocked *****.

    The smart focused Schmelling who outboxed Louis would beat Spinks in a hard fought contest.
