Carmen Basillio vs Curtis Cokes

I have these 2 near deadlocked in my ratings,
both had big wins, but both lost an awful lot.
At a Welterweight who's gonna get the best of this tilt?

But me thinks you are vastly underrating Carmen Basilio.

Cokes, an excellant technician, likes a little bit of distance to operate from, and i think Carmen would certainly seek to deny him that, and i do not envisage any Hearns type thunderbolts from Curtis either ( Not sure what they would actually avail him against Carmen in any case ? ) initially Carmen may actaully be lagging on the scorecards, but come the halfway stage Carmen may well have caught up, ultimately Curtis might have to slip into survival mode and see going the distence as a moral victory of sorts.
