    Let’s make it a fight to the finish so that Jim could run and avoid engaging for as long as he pleases without fear of losing rounds. How does this go?

    Probably ends with Corbett in a drooling sleep, laying in a pile of his own excrement.

    In a fight to the finish? No limit on the rounds? That could go one of 2 ways couldn't it?
    Either Peter imposes his 80 pound weight advantage and crushes Corbett early...or Corbett can make Peter chase him for 6 or 7 rounds and Peter, being 80 pounds heavier, becomes so exhausted that he lays down to rest and is counted out without getting hit.

    Anyone who votes Corbett should be banned for a lifetime.

    I don't think Corbett was even that good based on footage I have seen of him. Here's one old timer that I really do think Golovkin might clean up fair and square.
