Loughran is an ATG. Period. But don't you think he would have his hands full with Conteh? Anyone going with a possible upset?
He would definitely have his hands full with the composed combos of Conteh, and the exchanges of jabs would make for an interesting battle in who controls the pace. Loughran for me is a matador, this would be great just to watch their feet. 50/50 in my book, i'll take Loughran simply because he is the greater, if pushed.
Loughran by a decision, whether Conteh boxes or slugs with him. I say this being a fan, basically of Conteh, who I admired during his time...but there would be no way he's outpointing Loughran, a bonafide great, much less knocking him out. Loughran by a close 15 round decision.
I don't thnk Conteh should be favored because of his lack of experience in comparison, but I don't disagree with the idea that Conteh could've beaten him.
You're right Teeto...Loughran was a matador...that's a great description of him..that's what he was all right.
