    One thing is for sure, I wouldn’t bet money on this fight but I would damn sure spend money, a lot of money, to see it if a genie could make that wish come true. A lot of silly matchups are proposed here. This ain’t one.

    We saw what happened with Ray Robinson under such conditions at 175 … he wilted.

    Roy was closer to natural weight at 175 and he came up in the heat and humidity of Pensacola, Florida, so I don’t think he’d melt.

    I would want to see Tua vs Galento. It would be an ATG fight
