Randy Tex Cobb vs the smaller Ezzard Charles

Cobb's best chance is to make Charles laugh to death

Not a good one but Cobb's wit was on par with his chin

 

Charles all the way. No contest.

 

Charles in an easy night's work.

 

Charles UD

Next.........

 

Charles out works the tough but limited Tex To get a UD .

 

If the larger prime ATG Holmes cannot stop Cobb over 15, if no boxer ever could do it, how is the blown up LHW but still under 190 lbs. Ezzard Charles gonna do it?!?
And I think Charles is about the best ever at a real, in the ring 175 max.
Likely slightly better in absolute terms when fighting Rocky, both ~ 188.

He is very likely able to get a UD over the distance.
Anyone thinking he stops Cobb is on drugs. ; -)

Here are some Cobb quotes submitted just to amuse:

Randall (Tex) Cobb Quotes

• "All I do is hit somebody in the mouth. It's a whole lot easier than working for a living. Don't make anything noble out of what I do."
• "I've always thought the greatest crime a man can do is take himself too seriously. I mean, something like fighting is pretty ridiculous to take seriously. What I do is hit people, I'm not promoting anything that is real or valuable."
• "Yeah, I've been KO'd. Once. By a Mexican bantamweight. How come? Six of my buddies were swinging him around by the heels at the time."
• "Boxing writers are the only people out there who have less constructive jobs than what I do. I don't do nothing but hit people, and those mothers don't do nothing but write about what I do!"
• "If you screw up in tennis, it's 15-love. If you screw up in boxing, it's your ass, darling!"
• "No one hits as hard as [Earnie] [url]Shavers[/url]. If there was a fighter that hit harder than Shavers, I shoot him!"
• "Sure, I'd love to fight him. But I have my price: twenty-five cents and a loose woman." - On the possibility of a fight against [url]Gerry Cooney[/url].
• "You're white. Help me!" - To the referee during his fight against Larry Holmes
• "Larry Holmes didn't beat me. He just won the first fifteen rounds."
• "I wasn't talking to Holmes in there. Every time I felt like saying something to him I found it hard because he kept putting his left hand in my mouth."
• "I don't think his hands could take the abuse." - On a possible rematch with Holmes
• "I know that fight was called the greatest mismatch in history, but all I know is that when it was over, I was walking forward." - On his fight with Larry Holmes
• "If I eliminate heart disease, if I walk on water, if I come up with a cure for crippled kids, I can't image a greater gift to mankind. That is my greatest accomplishment." - On [url]Howard Cosell[/url]'s decision to quit covering boxing because he was so disgusted by Cobb's one-sided loss to Holmes
• "He has screwed everybody he has ever been around. Hog, dog, or frog, it don't matter to Don. If you got a quarter, he wants the first 26

 

Ah'm uhfraid that ol' Tex would only bring the best outta of ol' Ez Charles.

 

Charles by a comfortably wide decision...the down side is that it probably would not make Howard Cosell retire. As Tex said that alone was his greatest contribution to humanity lol

 

'Bout the same as either you or I being crowned Queen of Denmark.
