    I think Ray could take him out eventually.

    Ray would put him on Bambi legs within 3. And soon over.

    Just a reminder that Corbett had pretty good pop behind his punches whenever he actually planted his feet. He was the only person to hurt Jeffries in the ninth round of their first fight and he also put Fitz down as well. Had a pretty underrated chin as well it seems, given how Fitz had to beat him down in the later course of their fight and how he went 27 with Choynski.

    I get that Corbett knocking out SRR would basically be boxing's equivalent to 9\11 but I just wanted to put that out there.
