    In the esteemed opinion of the Classic Forum, how does this one go between two great stylists? It goes without saying..it's a 15 rounder.

    Conn licks any version of Willie Pastrano...Billy too fiery, a more cutting combination puncher than Willie. Conn 15 rounds UD, or a late tko...

    Yeah, as much as I'm a fan of Willie's, Conn would have been a real nightmare for h\im. If Joe Erskine was a handle,..oh man, Conn??

    This would be a good fight I think.Erskine happened to catch Willie when he was down. London had just beaten him on a cut(raw deal) But I think Conns kinda underated LH> I never ever hear him mentioned as even very good LH,why?? Any who like Billy by dec.
