    I've been scratching my head over this one lately. My opinion of Gavilan has skyrocketed over the years, but Benitez was able by and large to hold his own against a stylistic ****og in Leonard.

    Any thoughts?

    Erm. Can't believe Chavez-Khan inspires more dialogue.

    Gavilan, by an 8-7 decision. His experience will be the deciding factor.

    I like Gavilan's work rate in a close affair.
