    My head hurts just thinking about this fight...both guys would be blocking shots with their heads, and bleeding..and the dialogue between these guys would have been just hillarious..their would have to be a souped up mike in there to catch it. Maybe Cobb would win a decision or an attrition type bloody tko. Oh the slop slung by both of them!!! You'd need a garbage man as a referee.

    I think Cobb would take him, for as terrible as they both looked they did have some good wins.. Skill level equal Cobb even tougher than Wepner , Wepner was also a bleeder .... Cobb close ud.

    Cobb takes a close decison, or late round stoppage.

    I will go against the grain and take Chuck in this. Wepner turned pretty much all of his fights into inside battles and I think he is far more effective of the 2 on the inside. That really was never a strong suit for Tex and he needs distance to land. I think he gets hit w/ lots of those rabbit punches and mauled inside for a points loss to the Bayonne Bleeder.
