    A fight with Ketchel would be interesting, though I think he was too crude to actually win.

    I've always believed that Carlos Monzon would have beaten SRR by decision, and not just once, but twice. Sugar may have been the greatest and all that, but Monzon had the style, size, reach, and temperment to beat the p4p king, IMO.

    I agree, "laden" is a good word.

    In praise of Emile Griffith, I think he would have been competitive against ANYBODY in the history of boxing. He would at least go 15 hard rounds with any fighter in history.

    Carlos monzon.
    Roy jones.
    Marvin hagler.
    Robinson might possibly beat hagler in a close battle,but not the other two,especially not monzon.

    I reckon this might pan out like the Graziano fight,with Ray hitting the canvas early,question is could Stanley keep him there?

    I couldn't agree more.

    Also, "Gumption."
