    Mustafa had an easy time with Benitez who, whipped Duran the year before in a 15 round title fight. But could a resurgent Duran who came within two rounds of beating prime Hagler, tame the rushes of Hamsho?

    Hamsho was the dirty fighter and also the more active one. Hamsho by UD

    Hamsho was more active and dirty,but if he's about to get dirty, don't get fooled by Duràn either...I suspect the old fart makes it competitive,the best Mustafa would get was a close decision,I liked Duràn and he was more technical(more experience as well),so I pick Manos.

    I think Hamsho, he had a great run between both Hagler fights, Hamsho by decision in an action-packed fight.

    Hamsho by one sided battery and UD. Hamsho's tough as nails, and is the bigger, stronger guy.
