    Who, how and why?

    I feel Laporte wins this one but if the one who lost to Gerald Hayes shows up??

    Ford fought two ATG FW in the span of six mths and was never the same afterwards. Ford wins in this period but 83 Laporte wins .

    Ford was good enough to give Sal Sanchez hell,
    but conversely was taken apart by E.Pedroza ,
    which was eye opening.
    Laporte never had that extra gear for greatness.
    Always seemed to come up a little short .
    Ford wins this because Laporte would allow
    him too. Not because of skill level, power,
    oe speed.
    Ford would want it more, when push came
    to shove..... If both are prime.
