    Who's the ruler of the neo-Roman Empire? Or shall I say, Il Duce?

    Antuofermo probably gets outclassed, but could never tell with him.

    Whether he did or not, Vito "drew" with Hagler the first time around.

    Nino's face has the women running after him, Vito's face has the
    women running away from him.

    I am going with "Mr. Ugly" by 14th rd TKO, then he walks off
    with Madonna instead of A-Rod taking her home.

    Man, I have a hard time seeing Vito get to Benvenuti. I see him eating a lot of jabs and right hands and getting stopped on cuts late. Hagler, altough a few notches above Benvenuti, was a better style matchup for Vito.

    Antoufermo would be there all night, always trying, but he would be outboxed in this fight rather easily. Benvenuti had the worst style for Antuofermo.

    Nino wins this one easily, again, based on his style, but he would look like a million dollars against Vito.

    Vito had a tough, more American style, Nino had it all except for the tough training that Vito had...Still I see it as a close fight....tough pick

    KInda what I thought too.

    Nino always looked a little "brittle" to me.
