    The mauling attack & iron chin make Hamsho a formiddable foe. Monroe will have to work extreemly hard for the victory. But he has the skills & durability himself to edge Mustafa in this one. Monroe split decision.

    I am clearly biased as Monroe is my favorite phighter ever! But at his best, I find him to be to slick for hamsho and takes a nice clear UD

    Willie here by close decision. It would have been nice if his prime could have lasted longer, I always thought he could have been champ at his best.
