    15 rounds. Welterweights.

    Much as I like Palomino, this style is all wrong for him. Think the Azevedo fight, only against a guy with pure talent. Dupas out-finesses Carlos over 15 rounds.

    I`ll second that, Dupas is far too slick and quick on his feet for the plodding Palomino. Dupas really was one heck of a fighter and had such a beautiful boxing style, a real pleasure to watch this man ply his trade on film.
