Gomez TKO9. Too much of everything. Similar to the Davila fight I think.
Nobody ko's Hagler. I'd give Hagler a very outside shot of stopping Monzon by catching him pulling straight back with his hands down. Hagler's...
Standup classical European style fighter with a bit of an edge. He wasn't above the rough stuff. I always thought Monzon out-Benvenuti'd him. Very...

I remember watching Cervantes - Dejesus and a mention that Duran's management (Eleta?) was in attendence. I think Duran would fight anybody as...
Johnny Bumphus TD6 Marlon Starling. This is a rare fight in that the judges round scores were announced after each round. I wasn't seeing it...
