    Not really sure about this one. I think I'd favour Ketchel from I what I heard he was a great fighter

    Not sure who Mugabi beat at 160 that would give any indication that he could win this?

    Ketchel by KO 8

    I recall Mugabi wasn't that hard to hit. Maybe I'm somewhat foggy on him. If that was the case, letting Ketchel tee off on you is an awfully bad idea.

    Mugabi hit like a hammer but was a wide open target with questionable durability. Ketchel was a hellacious puncher with exceptional durability and killer instinct. Have to pick Ketchel by KO early.

    Mugabi in 5.

    No swing from the hip, hophead hayseed is going to take down an immaculate athlete like The Beast.
