    Who takes this?

    I actually lean toward Sanders in this one, but I'm curious to hear your thoughts.

    Having just watched Shavers versus Ali I have to testify that Shavers, at his stalking best, would be favourite to find the punch in a best-for-best scenario. Only the most knackered version of Sanders would be underdog versus the more ragged Shavers.
