    A physically and mentally prepared Sharkey wins a decision. The boy had science if not clout.

    Not supposed to be agreeing with Seamus but yes I also favor a prime Sharkey by decision

    Sharkey, he also beats Jeffries, more refined, more evolved, better at controlling the distance, could manipulate range with feints and upper body movement, great jab, could read you, could hit you then move out of the way, could counter, Jeffries was predictable.

    Sharkey. The quality of Sharkey varied through his career but any version of Sharkey should beat any version of Ruhlin.
