    Who would take the fight, between these to very rugged and tough middleweights?

    This is a good fight. There both prone to cuts. Both have good chins, but Vito's is better. Iran hits alot harder. That said I pick Vito in a war of attrition by a close decision.

    I would favor Vito a aswell, especially in a fifteen rounder, his stamina was amazing.

    I see it like the Hagler fight. Vito gets hiss ass handed to him early, then comes on to take a 12 or 15 riund dec. Especialy the 15 rounder. Whats that, they didn't give Vito the Hagler fight? I did.

    I take Vito as well, by UD or possibly late stoppage.

    Vito would edge Iran by the closest split decision you would ever see.
