    Could go either way, but I'm thinking, with O'Grady's experience, he would pull out a tough decision win over 12 or 15.

    If they fight at 135 and it's a 15 round fight Ogrady wins a decision, he was just a better boxer, a more complete fighter...

    Glad to see O'Grady getting some props here! I pick Sean as well....to batter, deck and decision Corrales.

    Chico, probably by stoppage.

    I'd favor Corrales by stoppage as well. I don't trust O'Grady's chin to handle Chico's firepower all night.

    Corrales would wreck him.

    If you are figuring prime Corrales vs prime O'Grady, I pick O'Grady by decision in what woud an incredibly entertaining fight.

    O'Grady has a pretty good chin, it's just that once it got cracked it never was the same.

    I vote O'Grady beats the pants off him as fight commentator. ;)

    In the ring....close one, and spectacular battle. Could go either way depending in the day.

    turnip, y would he whistle? I always like Sean,but he never looked like a very good boxer to me, the way he held his hands, looked very easy to hit. But Iloved when he beat the crap out of kenty, was awesome. As far as Diago, don't know, but I sure would go with Sean, good guy he is

    I admire O'Grady for turning pro at such a young age and being as active as he was. But in fairness ( and no knock on him ) his father kept him well protected. In fact he was arguably one of the most protected fighters of all time. His win over Hilmer Kenty was a great one and one that he deserves a lot of credit for as Kenty was a hot item at the time. But I think Corales was more battle tested and likely would have pulled this one off.
