What if John Baskerville and William Caslon got in a boxing match...

Baskerville would make his own gloves, shorts and mouthguard. His robe would be perfectly pressed and he'd have this amazing monogram sewn by Mrs. Eaves. He'd go by his moniker "the Birmingham Bomber" . . . or something.

Caslon would have some catchy alias like "Prince of Punches" and would show up at the match with guns strapped to his thighs. He'd wear his powdered wig the whole time and insist it's his real hair.

Benjamin Franklin would be the referee and get himself knocked out in the third round by a stray punch.

If you see the match ending differently post your opinion here. I dare you.
