    Camacho was better at 130 and 135.

    Tszyu was good at timing quick guys, getting that right hand home against lefties. I say he has some problems early on with Camacho's speed but eventually times him and gets the right hand home. Camacho goes too much into a defensive shell and drops a UD to Tszyu.


    Marlon Starling vs. Oscar De La Hoya

    Hard these matchups...All I will say is that if Joe fought in Bob's era he probably would not hear the final bell...Bob fighting in Joe's era is a more difficult fight to pick for.


    RE: Oscar vs Starling..pug I reckon Starling is the kind of fighter who would cast a lot of doubt on the result of this fight...At his very best he was a superb defensive fighter who very good on the outside and better then De la Hoya on the inside. I think his style and attributes give Oscar one hell of a time.


    MAB vs Sugar Ramos

    I thought we already went there :D ...As I said before in Bob's era Fitzsimmons by KO.

    In Joe's era..I dont know...Joe wins via DQ.

    Interesting thread. This one is a tough one IMO.

    Donald Curry v Wilfred Benitez. 15 rounds at welterweight.

    You gotta answer the last one Robbi before you put your one up.

    MAB vs Sugar Ramos it is.

    Close fight, Barrera pulls it out with his power being the difference.
    Erik Morales .Vs. Bobby Chacon at 126.

    I think Morales would win a fun, brutal fight. He's more skilled than Chacon and I think that right hand would land with consistency. Both guys would be really banged up by the end of the bout. Morales by UD.

    Salvador Sanchez vs. Eusebio Pedroza

    Wilfred beat Bruce, & I'm afraid Donald would fair no better. Benitez 15 rd. UD. (Razor thin after 12 though).

    Sanchez edges pedroza in a closely contested fight...with a late KO a possibility.

    Joltin Jeff Chandler vs Lupe Pintor

    Pintor wins with his intense pressure and better all-around attack.

    Pintor comes on strong late to win by decision or late TKO.


    Next up: Arguello vs. Saddler.

    :huh Because Donald was no better than Bruce? I don't see the logic in this argument.

    Bruce Curry was average to say the least and never possessed anywhere near his brother's technical prowess. Different level of class. And I'm afraid Donald would fare better against Benitez by a large margin. So large, he wins.

    D Curry W15 Benitez.
