    Terrel has a good win over peak Williams to support a decision outcome to his favour. Unfortunately for him, Baer isn't Williams, doesn't get arm weary and remains effective for much longer.
    I feel like this is a fight Baer would lose and come back to smash him in a rematch but both at their best I'd just go with Baer outright, either by stoppage or decision.

    If it's a prime Baer that's focused, then Baer. If it's average Baer, Terrell by decision.

    Baer can't deal with fast twitch. He threw bombs from a different zip code.

    Terrell by easy decision until he closes the show late.

    Terrell had a strong chin,maybe he could decision Baer into a boring victory.
