    15 Rounds 8 ounce gloves

    -Zale's body punching iron chin and toughness vs Ketchel's vicious attack punching power and seemingly unlimited stamina Who takes this out?

    Body punches can take so much out of a fighter, but against Ketchel i'm still not sure it would be enough not sure though

    That fight would be too painful for our mortal eyes.

    I know but Ketchel's punches on Graziano's face? I'll take the bodyshots in this one.

    A viscious beating maybe. Ketchel takes him into about 4 rounds and rakes him till the ref stops it.

    Ketchel will be taking hard body shots that whole time though and if Zale weathers the storm Ketchel will be in pretty bad shape for the rest of the fight where Zale would just step up the body attack and wear Ketchel down even more

    Unfair to say what I´m gonna say but I´ll say it anyway.

    Ketchel is very unimpressive on film. And Zale looks better, even past prime Zale.
    I´ll not give an opinion, just saying that......
