Tough to call. On one hand, it's tempting to just say Harding is just too big and strong, and Collins doesn't have enough power to trouble him too much. On the other hand, it wouldn't totally surprise me if the cagey and versatile Collins didn't find some way to outclass him the way an ancient McCallum did.
Collins would not hurt Jeff, who had muscles on his chin, but may be a little cagier, Jeff did not have a lot of power but was relentless. Jeff could have dne much more with his career but for his well documented personal issues but a prime Harding wins.
Surprised at these Harding picks. Collins had sneaky boxing skills and was crafty and effective - Harding was very limited, mindlessly face-first (though very strong!).
Watched a lot of both of them back in the day. I have to go with Harding due to being bigger, stronger and a harder hitter. He lacks the class of Collins but I don't think that would be a great factor.
