    If he fought Wilder's resume he would be the Champ with a 100% KO wins

              Probably would be champ. Nobody could hurt him and he could ****. He would knock Wilder out easy.

                  Cobb wasn't much of a stylist but he could and did take some punishment as well as deal it out. He'd have a punchers chance today at a belt

                    a fringe contender who could take a beating.

                    Nicholas Cage killed him with a grenade.
