    Twelve round bout at middleweight. To me it seems like Basora was able to beat the guys that Briscoe could never get passed (namely in his extremely tight draw with Robinson, though Briscoe nearly equals that in his first fight with Monzon), and his win over a slightly green Lamotta illustrates that even though his chin was relatively weak he could handle pressure fighters. On the other hand Briscoe is considerably larger than Basora and may have the punch and the poise to pull the win. Both guys were known for some inconsistency so lets say the Basora of the first Robinson fight vs the Briscoe of the first Monzon fight.

    Call it...:bbb
