    How does this go down?

    Without giving it much thought, I rather think this is a genuine merry-go-round. They're quite close in terms of functional mass. Moorer ate himself north of 200 pounds, but I've always held that he was best campaigning as a light heavyweight.

    Thoughts?

    Schmeling would have prety clearly aserted his superiority.

    If it's any kind of a close match against Patterson, he gets outworked and outpointed, in my opinion. Though, I do think he can make Floyd reign it in, granted a few well-timed rights get in. Confound him.

    Whom would you favor between the other two?

    I would favour Patterson based on his speed, but I would not care to put money on it.
