    Joey would be too much for Rocky...moxie over power...skill over brute force, etc.,....Giardello wins a lopsided decision.

    Giardello probably takes out Graziano. Walking into a counter puncher with power without much defense is not a great idea, but that's the only way Graziano knew how to fight.

    Their common opponent was Harold Green..Green Kod young Giardello
    in 1950 [saw that bout].
    And Graziano kod Green in 1945, [saw that too,MSG]. Giardello porime was a better all around fighter, but PRE Zale Rocky, with his right hand grenade, had a chance against Giardello IMO...
