How would Ray Robinson fare up against Carlos Monzón best MW opponents and vice versa?

There’s a strong possibility that both go undefeated if they are at their best for all of those fights. Would it actually play out that way? Never know in this sport.

 

Robinson beats em all, although Valdez and Benvenuti has a chance of cracking him, Griffith might cause him the most trouble with Valdez,because of his roughhousing.

If we're talking about prime Turpin,he might spoil Monzon for a bit before the size disadvantage was too big, Fullmer might be able to bully Monzon for some time too,i'd even give him a pass at rocking him at some point.

 

I could see Ray possibly picking up a loss to Napoles and Valdez.
Clean sweep for Monzon

 

Hi Guys.
For me they both go undefeated, reason being both are top 1/3 in the MWs ranking, the opponents are not, as for robert thinking that maybe Napoles would post a win over Robinson, not so sure a blown-up, cut prone, WW, would have the beating of Ray at 160.
stay safe guys, chat soon.

Monzon:
Beats LaMotta by UD. 3-0

Beats Turpin by UD or possible late stoppage. 3-0

Stops BoBo late. Decently competitive fight. 3-0

Beats Fullmer in a very competitive fight, looks similar to his fights with Briscoe and Valdez. 3-0 or maybe 2-1

Beats Basilio by UD. 3-0

 

Valdez vs Robinson would be one of my favourite fights ever, I know it would be.

 

Slaughters Griffith, ices Benvenuti at 154lbs, edges Napoles, outboxes Valdes and massacres Briscoe.

 

I could see either 1 running the table against his assigned group, but I'd more confidently back SRR since Nino, Griffith, & Napoles were all past their peaks to varying degrees when Monzon fought them, whereas all except maybe LaMotta out of the other group were squarely @ their peaks when SRR beat them.

 

Ray:
He might drop a close one to Griffith, but ultimately win 2/3
He would most likely TKO Benvenuti late. Would most likely do the same to Napoles, given Mantequilla's propensity for getting cut.
He would outbox Valdez and Briscoe for close decisions.

Carlos:

LaMotta would bring pressure and was as tough as anyone . So would Bobo Olson and Gene Fullmer. But none would be able to truly get to Monzon. Carlos takes a comfortable UD over all three.

Given his speed, strength and awkward style, Randy Turpin could give Monzon problems. However, he wouldn't be able reach Carlos consistently enough, and Monzon wins narrowly.

Basilio was a great boxer puncher, but but big or strong enough to to mount a serious challenge. Monzon takes this by decision or possibly late TKO.
