    Fairly even, but as they say, being a World Champion sometimes makes you a better fighter. I would favor Ray in a close UD.

    Ingemar Johansson .Vs. Jerry Quarry

    I'll pick Benn to overwhelm Downes around 8.

    Orlando a very good technical fighter. But I think Rafael would bait him into a slugging war & catch Orlando late. Marquez TKO 11.

    Wilfred Benitez .Vs. Esteban De Jesus @140.

    Benitez picks him to pieces DeJesus is just to small for LWW IMO. Benitez outboxes him and stops him late on.

    Willie Pep vs Ray Mancini @ LW

    Well i will pick Pep as i believe he was of a level above. You could imagine Ray using the strength to get to him later on though, but there's my pick, on points of course.

    Jose Luis Castillo vs Edwin Rosario at 135

    i was expecting a Pep 1st round KO

    I think Castillo was a poor mans chavez and look what Chavez did to Rosario i think Castillo can do it.

    Castillo UD 12

    Locche vs Pacquiao at LWW

    Did Willie Pep ever fight at Lightweight? But in an over the weight fight at Lightweight for Pep. Mancini's nonstop attack would wear on Pep. The extra weight & no chance for rest against an aggressive fighter like Mancini. I would take Mancini with a late round TKO in 14.

    Carlos Monzon .Vs. Victor Galindez @ 175.

    Okay i'll go for Locche because it's his weight and though the improvements are obvious for Pac i have to go with Locche because i do!

    Galindez i'll take also because of the weight, easy way out on both i know!

    Cerdan vs Toney at 160

    Pac gets the decision based upon work-rate and aggression in a weirdly **** fight.

    Monzon sneaks it on points.


    Yoshio Shirai v Vic Toweel!
