    It'd rude to keep the joint all to yourself.

    Frank would maul Cooper. I say that with all respect to Enery, he was a fine man and a extremely good fighter. But he also bled for England and that's what I see here. It won't take long for Frank to get that ramming jab in his face, the ref looking very concerned and around the fifth or so, the blood would be flying everywhere.

    I think Bruno would be the one eating jabs here.

    Also Muhmmad Ali twice, Ali stopped Henry Cooper in 5 rounds on a cut but had to climb off the canvas to do it on June 18 1963, but Ali cleanly stopped Henry on May 21 1966 in a title defense, TKO 6, no knockdown in that one.
