    50-50 imo so I think it just comes down to who was better on the night. Thoughts?

    Ellis was the better boxer but Coetzee could have ended things with that right hand at any time. Like you say 50/50

    Bump.
    Ellis beats him most of the time, too quick and too good technically, he’d outjab him and beat him to the punch.

    Coetzee's bionic right will land before Ellis can finish him off. Weaver needed 13 rounds, and I don't figure Jimmy can go that far.
