    @ Bantamweight how does Jofre handle the skills and style of Lionel Rose? Both fought Fighting Harada, with Jofre losing twice and Rose convincingly beating Harada.
    Styles make fights and I can see Jofre being able to overpower Rose in the later rounds.

    Prime Jofre stops him middle to late rounds after Rose gives a good showing early.

    I think Jofre would win a decision over a 'peak' Rose. Unlike Harada, he has the natural strength to resist Rose, as well as keep up with his skills. Harada could only do the latter.

    Rose does well early, but Jofre breaks him down then destroys him.

    Rose takes an early lead, but Jofre comes back and wins by very late stoppage.
