    Foster UD. But he would definitely hurt Galindez a couple of times, probably drops him as well.

    Leaning against the ropes wouldn't be the greatest idea to beat Foster. Lol

    Foster is a HORRIBLE matchup for Galindez. It doesn't get any worse.

    Galindez wouldn't have success from range, as Bob's piston-like jab would control him from a distance, and likely slice him up. That means Galindez would have to sell out and attack to have success, and him selling out and trying to force a brawl means eventually getting caught with a hook that turns his lights out.

    Foster KO 7.

    As much as I admired both champions, Victor Galindez did have brittle skin, both Alvaro Yaqui Lopez bouts, the title defense against Eddie Mustafa Muhammad, the first Richie Kates bout as well as his title loss bout to Mike Rossman. Victor Galindez was the WBA mandatory challenger to champion Bob Foster in 1974, John Conteh was the WBC mandatory challenger to Foster, also in 1974 following Foster's draw against Jorge Ahumada that same year. Foster would keep Victor backing into the ropes, always using that long left jab as a weapon to set up his lethal left hook. I say a prime Bob Foster knocks out Victor Galindez, the same way Marvin Johnson did in 1979, TKO 11.
