Would Robinson be able to defeat the elusive Willie Pep? Discuss.

I think Sugar Ray Robinson would defeat Willie Pep.
As great as Pep was, he would have a hard time avoiding Robinson for 15 rounds. Robinson was very fast, a fantastic boxer and was very smart in the ring. This combined with his power and stamina, I see Pep being beaten badly after winning the first 3-5 rounds.
Pep looked tremendous against more stationary foes, but against a great mover such as Robinson, I don't think he would be able to use his strenghts to his advantage as much.
