Willie's name comes up so seldom that I feel compelled to respond to any thread concerning him. I believe that Pastrano would have been a bit too slick and fast for Bobo. It would have been reasonably competitive however, as Willie didn't have the big punch to put Olson on his ass, thereby giving Olson the confidence to move in and keep swinging, but he would have been swinging at air mostly, with Willies jab, which was an art form in itself, doing the scoring. Olson would hvae had his momemts, but they would have been few and far in between, and Willie would have outboxed him for a decision. Olson also didn't have the power to faze Willie either, and would have eaten MANY, MANY jabs.
Great matchup!!! I like both, and both are fighters who are pretty unknown today (sadly), IMO Willie was too slick and too tricky, compared with his great skills he would win a solid point decision... Pastrano 116- 112 Olson
I only know of these two from reading about them both are great Hall of Fame fighters I really think Pastrano is underrated though and would take this fight.
I think that Red Cobra has it just about right. Decision win for Willie. But he would have to work for it all night. Bobo would make sure of that.
