    Not sure, I've ever seen a heavyweight (at the contender level at least) quite as open as Galento.

    Williams was the more open that is why he was knocked every time he faced someone decent.

    Galento was the Tua of the 1930s. Once he clips Williams with the left hook, that's all she wrote

    If it were Rocky vs Williams, he'd emerge from his sarcophagus and would roam this thread like a mummy ready to strangle anyone picking Williams.

    Ha Ha, I agree, he really had a dislike for the Big Cat.
