    they would have had to have the warden as referee...
    Rocky Graziano, though never a great fighter was never the same after the 3 fights with tony Zale...Rocky was the most exciting fighter pre Zale
    I ever saw, but he made his name fighting welterweights and "small"
    middleweights...laMotta started his career as a light heavyweight and
    "slimmed down" to fight in the 160 pound division, so he was a bigger
    man than Graziano...i see a war between rocky and Jake for a few rounds
    then LaMottas skill and savvy takes over..laMotta by a late stoppage or unanimous decision....
