>> Tapia "brawls" the boxing way

Point taken regarding the rapid exchange of blows.
In the UK it's called that going toe-to-toe. Brawling in my mind is the wild looping misses etc you graphically describe.

If the fight occurs in the UK (or Europe) it will be close, and I favour Hamed, because he simply won't engage Tapia until he is worn out.

If the fight is in the US, I can see Hamed losing on points.
(The Lewis-Holyfield debacle at MSG comes to mind.)

Whatever, it should be a fascinating match.
