Both White boys overlapping in boxing during the late 70s and early 80s. Both gave reson for HOPE.....I would go with Tex but his beating at the hands of Holmes had even Howard Cossell nauseus enough to essentially quit boxing broadcasting. Cooney was strong, Cobb took punishment. I'll go with Cobb but root for Cooney since he was from Long Island....GS
Cobb, gets beat up for 5 or 6 rounds but he isn't going anywhere and Cooney fades, leading to Cobb stopping him late
