    It would be insane to have this match. Monzon was so clinical and Hamsho so brave, I dread to think what could happen.

    Hopefully a ref refuses to let Hamsho continue after 8 or so one-sided bloody rounds.

    Hamsho boxes rings around Carlos to take a lopsided decision.

    And Buster Douglas is going to go Tokyo and flatten unbeaten Tyson. ;)

    Put your money on that 1800/1 win double.

    Not very Hamsho would be coming on to that probing left jab and catching hard rights dropped over his less than tight guard,a late stoppage win on cuts ,for Carlos,imo.

    Larry Holmes vs Tex Cobb comes to mind.

    Haha. Just to be clear, Hamsho was better than Cobb, but I think Monzon was at least as good as Holmes at their respective weights. Clearly better in my opinion.

    monzon would find Hamsho so easy to hit that he would put extra heft to his punches, esp the right..he would stop the syrian before round 9.
