    Willard on points, I think he can repeat the move and jab like he did with Moran imo.

    Willard is becoming popular around here in the classic forum huh? First a fight with Charles, and now this.

    I tend to agree Willard would keep it at long range,and if he got tagged he had the chin to take punishment.

    I might go with Willard as Lyle's stamina and chin were a bit shaky while Willard had exceptional stamina and a rock chin ...

    I'd pick Lyle via UD or late round stoppage. Willard could not counter punch, was a tad slow and easy to hit. I think Lyle had enough size to outbox Willard.
