Will Graham wilt under the pressure Roldan brings or will Roldan be completely baffled at Graham's rough-housing?
You can't out-roughhouse the roughhouser in this case. Graham couldn't keep Roldan off of him. Herol makes a show make "The Hammer" batters him unmercifully for a late rounds TKO.
I think Roldan would have to get an earlier stoppage than that to win, or at least do most of his damage early, which isn't out of the realms of possibility.Grham would probably start picking him apart with his combo's and lead lefts and maneuvering him about if he's able to settle in without having been ****ed up sufficiently.That ability to grab, manipulate balance and spin fighters continually(and often illegaly)would frustrate the hell out of Juan.Probably lose Graham a few points if the fight was in America or Argentina, which could be crucial if he's been hurt enough or dropped early. I could see it being somewhat similar to the Nunn fight, which ive never thought Roldan was past it for...he looked fine until he started getting fooled about and frustrated.Roldan was a beast early, but the guy was a sprinter, if he had been less frustratable and prone to losing heart and momentum i'd be quicker to back him in here.He was the 80s Gratien Tonna.JUst a few changes in mentality away from being a great wrecking ball.
That Brenden Ingle early version of graham you could'nt hit with a bag of rice. Graham changed his style to impress the American TV companies & it went tits up against Kalambay. Graham would be an absolute nightmare for Roldan, Herol would'nt go anywhere near him for the 1st half of the fight then he's start picking Juan off. Herol of old was far to slippery IMHO.
I favour graham here but a good point has been where the fight is held would be crucial to the way it would of been scored
