    Battle between 2 great Light-Flyweights. Who do you think has the advantage in this interesting match up?

    From what I remember, I like Gushiken's power and punch variety better… But this would be a holy war of terror. Great match-up. Will ponder upon this more.

    Gushiken had better variety, but also was a bit flaky.

    Yuh was consistent, and while he may look unspectacular on the surface, his blend of offence and defence and mixing his shots upstairs and downstairs was positively Chavez-esque.

    Yuh was the Chavez to Chang's Duran. And I reckon he would overcome Gushiken's flash down the stretch.

    To my everlasting disgrace I have seen only one Gushiken fight.

    Gushiken in a razor thin close verdict.

    I'd take Yuh. I think he had slightly more substance than Gushiken and was more durable/stronger.

    Yuh takes a decisive decision through his inside fighting and workrate. He was good enough to get past Yoko's brilliant mid range work.

    I stand by what I originally said. Yuh was better.

    Interesting tread. Usually more determened, attitude and disciplined Yuh would win by close decision.
