In an odd happenstance I actually saw your Reddit account by pure chance a few weeks ago, on a sub that had nothing to to with boxing, but didn’t...
The one who fights under his own rule set wins. Both look supremely skillful to me. (For some reason I can’t delete that annoying numeral one at...
In the words of Monday Night Mitch, I have no idea.
