    Monzon was 35th in the ring punches list, alot of fighters who faced him said he punched like a heavyweight, could he get librado out of there? librado has only been dropped once?

    Yes. He could and would. No doubt. Andrade would not be able to stop Monzon scoring cleanly, and he would only be able to absorb those shots for so long before folding.

    Of course. Monzon would be scoring at will.

    I doubt it. Monzon wasn't aggressive enough to stop Andrade, who has a true granite chin. I think Kessler hits harder than Monzon does and look at their fight. He takes those immense shots with ease.

    Monzon wins every round, but there is no reason to suggest he stops Andrade.

    Monzon never had a first round ko because he was a slow starter . Monzon did not have the speed and power of Kessler ...it would be no surprise if Andrade went 15 rounds good call Jack!!!
