    I'm going with Pastrano on points here but I think Griffin would take one in a trilogy. Thoughts?

    Griffin had a much faster counter hook which stopped Jones throw throwing many leads in his first clash with Montell despite blasting Griffin out in the rematch, Roy would had no problems with a prime Pastrano because he was far slower than Montel and only fought out of one position, very predictable fighter, Griffin too fast and sharp for him.

    Even a faded Harold Johnson is a level or two above the best Griffin.

    Pastrano by decision.

    One thing is for sure, this is going the distance. I like Willie's footwork and jab to carry him to a UD win. Montell was a great fighter though. I saw him fight live a few times and he was a slick dude.
