Monzon most likely takes a methodical approaches and patiently boxes. It would go into the late rounds where Monzon most likely wins by UD, or...
I gotta pick Duran. Both are extremely tough, it would be a brutal war, but Duran"s defense edges it.
Jackson by brutal KO, a la Herol Graham.
This fight pretty exemplifies why I never was a big fan of Chavez. He lost the first fight, then hinted that he wasn't properly motivated, and...
Only Hagler would've beaten a young Tony Ayala. Riddick Bowe would've crushed Joe Frazier. Hagler held back vs. Duran
Hamsho by one sided battery and UD. Hamsho's tough as nails, and is the bigger, stronger guy.
Hearns pretty much " broke " him, so to speak. Cuevas was damaged goods by 1983. Cuevas vs. Duran in 1979 would've been awesome to see!
Other than Delahoya... Carlos Palomino.
Both are really skilled, but McCallum is the bigger guy at his natural weight. The Bodysnatcher by clear UD.
It would be competitive until late, when the cumulative effect of Cuevas' punches wears Forrest down.
Carter by late TKO
Canelo at both. Just a naturally bigger and stronger guy.
Going from Leonard's era....Hearns, Mugabi, McCallum, Julian Jackson, and Tony Ayala Jr.
A great trilogy this would make.
Monzon's trombone jab certainly makes it difficult for anybody to get near him consistently enough. But his slow hands will be outmatched by...
