    Middleweights. The 'Dead End Kid' from NYC meets the 'Beast' from Kampala, Uganda...
    Who wins the fight, and who in your opinion, has the harder punch?

    I am surprised "Big Dee" hasn't come forth with his opinion on this one.

    My opinion is Mugabi puts Rocky down a couple of times early then walks into a right hand bomb in Round 4 and gets TKO'ed.

    Another one for the old-timers !!!!

    BIG DEE HERE= A war an all out war as Graziano would pull-out all stops against Mugabi. It would be who landed the biggest shot first and didn`t let the other get away. This fight is a 50-50 fight as both could put the other away
    as Mugabi took the best shots from Hagler untill he just couldn`t take anymore
    from him. Graziano hit harder than Hagler with his right but Mugabi was never the same after the Hagler fight as he just didn`t seem to be able to take the same shots as before. Graziano though took it the same after the Zale fights as before. IF GRAZIANO MAKES IT THRU THE FIRST 3 RDS HE WILL GET TO MUGABI AND KO HIM AROUND THE 6TH TO 9TH RDS. IF NOT MUGABI TAKES GRAZIANO OUT 1ST TO 3RD ROUNDS.
