    One of them would get KTFO.

    Bombs away. I give Hurricane the advantage--sturdier chin

    I'd favor Carter as well if he was having a on night.

    Nobody could handle Jackson's power.

    As would I.

    I presume that includes McCallum and McClellan?

    Lol people say nobody could handle Joe Louis, Rocky Marciano's, Jack Dempsey or Mike Tysons power even though people went the distance with them so why cant i joke about people not being able to handle Jacksons power.

    I give Jackson is that perfect wild card with anyone who's defense is a little "iffy".

    Both men were quick starters and came looking for the early kayo, so anything could happen here. Jackson had the bigger punch and had more heart, but Carter had the quicker hands along with a better chin and a slightly better skillset and that might be the difference in the outcome here. I`ll tentatively pick Carter by KO2 but with the proviso that he may well get his own head knocked off if Julian lands with his sunday best first. Either way this fight likely won`t see the halfway point, not with these two bangers looking for the quick KO.

    I like Jackson by early stoppage. He can trade for a while and land his bigger shots and has immense heart. I don't think Carter would be able to 'do a McCallum on him'.

    Carter takes out Jackson in the ninth round by a thriller, Jackson's bombs not working on Hurricane's chin, then Ruben proceeds to wear down Julian.

    i never really believed carter to have the kind of granite chin needed to handle jackson's shots. tiger, though physically stronger, was not the type of legendary puncher jackson was but he beat the holy **** out of carter
