    Fenech by stoppage, but I hope it goes the distance so I can check out the round card girls.

    Would be an action packed fight with both guys being aggressive come forward type fighters. My money would be on Fenech though.

    In Tokyo with same day weigh in wouldn't make it any easier for Fenech.

    A mouth watering (similar) style matchup is Jeff Fenech vs Salvador Sanchez at say 126.

    Finally, someone has made a creditable response. A same day weigh-in would **** him also.

    I never even knew or contemplated that.

    I'd still take Fenech though, and I'd still have a bat over the card girls.

    Based on Bantam form I would certainly go with Harada if it was at that weight.

    Any higher and its a harder call...I would probably go with Fenech at 122 and certainly at feather.

    But in response to flamengo's conditions I would take Harada by decision.

    Not sure at Batam...... But Fenech would have demolished Harada at featherwieght.:deal

    I have the utmost respect for Lionel Rose and Johnny Famecheon who both defeated Harada....and Fenech would have made mince meat out of both of them.

    RE: Rose vs Fenech...quite an interesting matchup.

    I actually consider it a toss up, just because I dont feel Lionel had the power to keep Jeff off him and I think eventually he wouldnt be able to keep up with Fenech on the inside.
    You can see how quick Lionel looks in the Olivares fight but he just didnt have the pop to keep Ruben where he wanted him.

    Could see some parallels between the two fights but Jeff doesnt hit as hard as Olivares..so it would be a longer more drawn out fight which would be closely fought.
