    Each at their best? I respect Mancini. He was solid fighter, tough guy. There alot punches etc. I think Mando had more. Not sure if he ever showed his true ceiling as a fighter. He was getting high before fights and winning. He high during fights. His talent got him by for awhile.

    Ramos by TKO. Two tough guys

    I agree, though I can see a decision easier than a stoppage. And a Mancini win wouldn't shock me either.

    Mancini 's conditioning..pressure and work rate may overcome Mando's advantage in talent. I slightly lean that way.

    Mando was more gifted than Boom Boom but he could get drawn into a fight. I don't think he consistently showed the discipline outside or inside the ring to use his talents to their fullest. That's why I'm picking Ray to win in a heartstopping fight with great ebb and flow.

    Mando could definitely win. He had the talent and skill to do so. But he would probably **** it up, meaning I pick Mancini.

    At his (mercurial) best, though, I favour Ramos.
