Michael Dokes v James Douglas

The best Douglas V the best Dokes, I've got Buster stopping him in ten. A close fight and entertaining but Douglas s Jab is the key

 

Have to go for Douglas by late stoppage

 

I go with Buster, late round stoppage. I think Douglas' heavy jab terrorizes Dokes, who will not be able to get away from it.

 

no version of dokes beats buster at his best. put dokes in Tysons place and he gets beat bad

 

If his head is on right, Dokes wins a close UD. If not, Buster by UD.

 

Could go either way. I’m fine with people picking Douglas as long as they remember that in addition to beating Mike Tyson he ALSO lost to Jesse Ferguson and Tony Tucker while being reasonably close to prime.

 

Buster drops those hands as the rounds go by. Always did. I think that is his undoing against those quick Dokes combos the second half of the fight.

So I will always take the DKP favorite over the other guy in close bouts that go to the scorecards. And this would go the cards and the Don King guy wins.

 

Dokes survived Holyfield headbutt + low blow combo so I'd go for Dokes.
