    Another battle of the brothers.

    Skill vs Power.

    Who wins?

    Orlando by UD.

    He's just a better overall boxer.

    Gaby has good enough skills that he is not going to be outclassed and is the better puncher of the 2. I see Gaby taking this one....always have and probably always will

    Both good fighters .orlando probably a bit better.Saw a lot of them in the uk back in tha day .Billy hardy gave Orlando a very hard night and Duke McKenzie outboxed Gabby in a wonderful display of boxing to win his third title at different weights .the only British fighter to do so .

    You and me both. Orlando was good but Gaby's power was scary in his prime. I will say, however, that Orlando had a longer prime.

    Gaby was outslicked several times. Greg Richardson, Kenny Mitchell, Bernardo Pinango. Orlando possessed enough slickness to outbox Gaby. And he had a very good chin. Gaby did beat the slick Happy Lora, but both were way past prime. And, he beat Sandoval, who was horribly weight drained. Gaby has a punchers chance but if we're talking likely scenario prime for prime than Orlando by decision.
