    Is this a total mismatch ?
    Sonny destroys TT in a nutshell ?
    Or does Tubbs at his Best give Liston a boxing lesson ?

    Not sure it is a mismatch? Tubbs has high quality wins over Bonecrusher and Page, and competitive with Spoon prior to meeting Tyson. Weight/conditioning and drug issues seemed to be catching up to him as well. He is a viable contender imo but still comes up short. I would take Liston in 6 or so to finish him off.

    If Tubbs lasts beyond 12, he is scoring an upset. But most likely he's not in shape, and Sonny makes quick work of him in 2 rounds.
