    Ernie Terrell 1965 vs Carl The Truth Williams 1985, 15 Rounds. Would tall Ernie outmuscle Carl, taking away his left jab? Or would Carl land the left jab all night long?

    Very close for a while. Williams had a jab and handspeed that could be problematic for Terrell for a while. However, Terrell was tougher and went 15 4x to Williams' 1x. Who hits harder is difficult to say. Williams has more notable knockouts than Terrell, though not many despite that. Both go the distance. Terrell wins an SD in a war of jabs.

    Williams on points, though it would be a close fight. Maybe Williams would win enough round to overcome one knock down.
