    Shuler could work off that good jab early, but cannot hold off the Hurricane for long. Carter closes the gap & takes over, stopping James in about the seventh.

    Carter has a chance to end this early ala Hearns. Carter within the first 5 for me.

    Yey this is how i see this going^^^. Carter will do what James KInchen almost pulled out, Carter was more relentless and would have finished Shuler once he had him in trouble. I agree though that Shuler would be ahead at the time. He had good boxing skills and was real tall for a MW (same height as Hearns).

    Carter ko 8

    James would have a tough time with Rubin, but would have enough courage and strength, along with his boxing ability, to win a close decision by like 5-4-1 over Carter.

    Well, look how he got on with a far better boxer in Benton for starters.
