    judah takes the first 6 real easy but starts to lose it around the 7th where hattons body work really pays of and judah loses concentration, Hatton late KO/TKO

    Felix Trinidad vs Jose Napoles @ WW

    Napoles, he has that footwork at the top level that mean trouble for Trinidad.

    Glen Johnson vs Harold Johnson

    Glen might give him a surprising fight, as he does well against fighters who try to box him rather than back him up. Still, I think Johnson's all-around class and ability would see him through, and he would dominate down the stretch to win a clear decision.


    Next up: Orzubek Nazarov vs. Miguel Angel Gonzales, lightweight unification fight.

    In a close tough fight, I would look for Nazarov to pull it out. Possibly by split decision. Gonzalez would make it interesting though.

    Jersey Joe Walcott .Vs. Wladimir Klitschko

    My heart wants to pick Jersey Joe, but I believe Wlad would utilize his superior size advantage and coast to a clear 8-4 UD...I might increase JJ's chances in a 15 rd event, but would still be inclined to choose Wlad.

    Chris Eubank vs James Toney SMW

    i think toney wins this using his skills but Eubank doesnt go down fighting i say somethiing like 8-4, 7-5 on rounds but a clear UD for Toney

    Lewis just might edge "Kid" Berg on a hairline split decision victory. in a very tough fight.

    Roberto Duran .vs. Carmen Basilio at WW.

    Not many welters beat Duran from the Palomino and Leonard 1 fights, some but not many.

    I dont think Basilo is one of these guys. But is really quite a good matchup, from the welter footage Ive seen of Carmen he was an excellent fighter there.

    Duran 8-7 Decision...


    Betulio Gonzalez vs Jung-Koo Chang @ 110 pound catchweight.

    Chang by decision. Much quicker and busier than Gonzalez.

    Masao Ohba vs Hilario Zapata at Fly

    I would take Ohba by decision, very good fighter. Trajic story, shades of Salvador Sanchez.
    Ohba was rumered to be moving up to Bantamweight at the time of his death. Anyone know who he was interested in challenging?

    Sonny Liston .Vs. Earnie Shavers

    Liston early stoppage win.

    Daniel Zaragoza vs Izzy Vasquez.

    La-Caifa..The logical choice would have been Olivares I presume, if he had caught Ruben on the right night (after a massive binge session instead of a massive training session) who knows how he would have went.

    In a bloody brawl Vazquez would prevail in a late round stoppage by cuts. Zaragoza was a tough competitor, but Vazquez has too much firepower for him.

    Thomas Hearns .vs. Roy Jones Jr. At 160.

    Roy Jones being a little green, and lack of the jab would make him pay here I think.. Hearns would be able to keep him outside and stop him late...Hearns might go down himself on the way though.

    Mosley - Buchanan
