20 rounds at middleweight. Early 1900's ruleset...no neutral corner following KD's, infrequent breaking up clinches...Would McClellan's power make it all irrelevant? Who do you take?

Not seen enough film of Ketchel to fully make a predicition, but from what I have seen and heard, the moment he lands the fight is his. Gerald might not have gone down from the first shot, but it wouldn't be long after.

Ketchel was the definition of a "Murderous Puncher."

McClellan KO1.

edit: You said early 1900's rules, that would be a bit more interesting, but I;ll still taake McClellan by KO after some roughing from Ketchell prevents him from getting it too early.
