    I'm no expert,,,,,,,,,

    But if Curtis Ramsey (an overblown Light-Welterweight) who was
    stopped by Lightweight Andy Ganigan,,,,,, can go 10-Rounds with Tony Ayala Jr.,
    than how can this supposed 'Warrior from San Antonio',,,,,,

    be the next best thing since 'sliced bread'.

    Is this some sort of thinly-veiled Ayala **** fantasy?:lol::lol:

    Christ, the macho-worshipping Ayala homoeroticism from you and Lax was bad enough.

    Too bad Masashi Kudo retired in 1979,,,,,,,

    Otherwise he would have utilized his wrestling skills on Tony Ayala Jr.,
    and grappled him with a rear naked choke hold.

    Can't you just see 'El Torito',,,,,,,'Tapping Out'

    If Masashi failed,,,,,,there would be;
    * Jae-Doo Yuh
    * Ho Joo
    * Jae-Keum Lim
    * Tadashi Mihara

    Tony can't avoid the 'Orient Express'

    I have read, and heard, some stuff in my time on this earth regarding who would beat who in mythical match-ups, but the last sentence of the above post is the most ludicrous speculation i have ever come across. A 14yr old (albiet a very good 14yr old, but 14yr old none-the-less) beats a 29/30yr old good Duran??????? Jesus wept !!!!:shock::shock:

    Sparring Sessions,,,,,,,,,,,,,

    Absolutely the most useless tool to gauge a fighter.

    Yes its possible. Ive seen too much over the years in the sport of boxing to say its CANT happen.

    If Ayala were to face an unmotivated, unfocused, distinterested version of Duran who faced Kirkland Laing then he would have a reasonable chance.

    Problems is that if the fight were actually signed Ayala`s own behavior would probably be his undoing. He would mouth off at the press conferences, maybe start a scuffle, push Duran, maybe even spit on him like he once did to an opponent. Big Mistake

    It would be a father/son type of lesson being taught once the bell rang.

    As far as the bigger, younger, stronger thing? Hagler, Moore and Barkley were all that and none of them could stop Duran. Ayala sure as hell isnt going to do it.

    I've seen 14 year olds brutalize and kick the asses of 18 yr olds in street fights. They are less inhibited and very quick to let their fists fly. You just havent seen it the way I have

    Rooster Man,,,,,,

    Now we're going from 'sparring sessions' to 'street fights'.

    Just how many times did you see the 14 1/2 year old Tony Ayala Jr.
    fight,,,,,,,,,that would be in the Summer of 1977.

    it doesn't mean much. Some guys take it easy in sparring sessions and others go full energy.
