Can Bear land a bomb or does Ellis box his way to a win?

    Big puncher V smooth slickster, capable fighters of a similar size - prime for prime, who gets it?

    Ellis schools him and IMO it takes not much more than the jab, he’ll mix in the occasional lead hook and right set up by the jab, but it’ll be mostly the lead hand, jab up and down, lead hooks etc and feints with the hands and feet to make Baer second guess and to make Ellis less predictable, use lateral movement so Baer can’t get set, he needs to get set to get power, he loads up, he can’t just throw one out there, he needs to get set.
