    Definitely but I don’t see McCall winning I think he ends up like shavers did.

      I would favor the Atomic Bull.
      If Randall Cobb trained hard it might go 10 rounds. Tex would have some moments I’m sure. I’d say it gets stopped on cuts in the 9th.
      TKO The Atomic Bull

          jeez...well well well...biggest initial question would be which Ollie shows up. McCall had a lot more talent than Cobb. Cobb was game and could hang in there. Yeah it may go a while... and at some point either McCall loses his focus, or Cobb loses his lights temporarily.

          Indeed while it lasted this could have been a barn burner. I would favor the talented Ollie because I am an optometrist errrr I mean optimist.

            - -I'd suggest odds to show Ollie by KO early, 1-3 rds, and Tex thereafter as he would be more consistent and busier during the Patented Ollie fade.

                Ollie?

                Anyways McCall would win an easy decision over Cobb.

                  He could win, but real close decision.

                    The reason I think you are underestimating Cobb is because Cobb was one of the very best, elite level, masters of the psych game. Cobb knew how to look, how to talk, and how to behave in a manner where he made himself a much larger opponent than his skills would justify on their own accord.

                    We know that Ollie was not "cricket" if you could press some of those "buttons." I could see Cobb hanging in their by causing Ollie mental anguish...Making him believe he was having no effect, getting him fired up and making mistakes, etc.
