    Roberto Duran vs Ike Williams at `35. A legit toss up in my view. It would be must see TV

    Those shots to the top of the head do throw off a fighter’s equilibrium. A good example of this was the Oquendo vs Etienne fight where Fres scored SEVEN knockdowns in a fight that lasted 8 rounds.

    Oh yes - that's a classic fight right there!
    And it really is a pick'em. I know Duran would be the obvious pick but from everything I've seen and read about Williams, he is certainly capable of beating Duran.
