  1. PATTERSON BY GAZELLE PUNCH!!!


  2. Both are around the same size and are about equal in power.  Ezzard might have a slight edge in power.  There isn't a great difference in speed.  Floyd has a slight edge but it wouldn't make much of a difference because Ezzard is quick too.  

    There are two glaring differences.   1.  Floyd telegraphs his punches, especially the hook.  He even telegraphs his jab.   He has that slight shrug of the shoulders before throwing his punches.   Not everyone can catch this because EVERY fight does SOMETHING before throwing a punch.   Even Sugar Ray Leonard, as quick as he was,  had that ''flinch''.  Only Randy Shields was able to catch Leonard on this.  

    The other difference between these two is Patterson's weak chin.  Ezzard went Life and Death with Marciano for 15 rounds.  Floyd could NEVER do this.  Rocky would destroy the weak chinned Patterson if he ever fought him the way Ezzard did.  

    Ezzard Charles throws EVERY conceivable punch from every angle.  Floyd doesn't use the uppercut very well.  Charles is very accurate.  At some point in the fight it's likely Ezzard will score a knockdown.   Patterson will rise and visit the canvas again in the later rounds.  

    FLoyd survives and goes the distance, losing on points.  IT is also very likely that Charles will stop him in round 14.  Either way,  Ezzard Charles wins.

  3. Charles win by decision

  4. Charles would box Patterson's ears off.

  5. thumbs up to galactus, charles by decision or late stoppage.
