Will Corolla v Loma be as a mismatch like Cooper v Paterson?

    Back in the 60`s British heavyweight Henry Cooper was easily knocked out by Floyd Paterson will Corolla v Loma be the same type of thrashing?

    Although durable, Corolla is too one dimensional, slow and easy to hit.

    I fer he could get torn apart and badly hurt.

    Yeah, Adam Carolla is over 50. Its gonna be a massacre. I know he used to box back in the day, I have no idea what he's thinking.:ohno

    I can’t even pretend to have any idea what happened in the Patterson-Cooper fight. But, I think it could be very lopsided. Linares pretty much shut out Crolla and thoroughly outclassed him in their rematch. I remember Linares landing uppercut after uppercut all night long on Crolla. Crolla is a tough dude and a solid operator, but he will be in way over his head with Loma.

    Yes but he`s fighting Loma surely to have any chance he`d have be at his very best.

    Not only is he 54, but he's also like 6'3", it's gonna be tough for him to get down to 135.

    I don't know, he's pretty scrawny. Hell Howard Stern could probably make 154 and take on Fundora.:biggrin:

    I'm a little concerned about the inactivity and ring rust for Carolla. To me, 35 years between fights seems like a little too long of a layoff.

    Well, at least we'll know he'll be in good hands and won't be allowed to take too much punishment with Dr. Drew in his corner.
