    My view.

    Would be an awesome skillful offense,but I think that Brwon was more Skillful in levels and wins a decision (15).

    Well I am a semi Laguna fan and think he would outskill and outslick Brown for a decision. I think this makes a better hypothetical fight than a real life one may be. I just like Laguna (yes, I am a fan) to edge this

    I'd say anyone who has watched him is a fan of El Tigre Colonense. Awesome fighter, who Duran looked up to aswell.

    And thinking about it, this bout is probably better hypotheticaly than it may be in reality. Still interesting though.

    Maybe Laguna by a hair...I don't know...just that this would be an all-quality, Class A match up for sure.

    I have to go with brown, who was most likely faster, hit a little harder and overall, all around better fighter.

    I think these two guys would have probably had a trilogy...they would have gotten to know each other quite well I believe.

    I'll take Ismael Laguna in a fascinating chess match.
