    Touch gloves and come out fighting....Turpin often fought and beat bigger men and 2nd man to defeat Robinson, and Zale "The Man of Steel." Who and why?

    i would take randy

    zale is a great a puncher with both hands. and ad alot of chin heart and just pure toughness. has a decent jab in the way of things and does have a decent amount of skill. but his main weapon was his right hands. that is what he wants you to walk in on.

    now turpin on the other hand is maybe not a power puncher but more of a worker he throws tons of punches at odd angles and clinches when his attack is over. thus makign it impossible to fight back after he has flurried.


    i would pick turpins faster handed high workrate awkwardness over zale's uptight guard wiating to punch when your close.

    i think turpin has enough chin stamina and work ethic to beat zale over the course of the fight
