  • John Conteh v Victor Galindez?

    Two fine light heavy champs who were contemporaries , but never faced each other.Who wins and why?

    A missed opportunity to unify and a missed opportunity for a great fight to settle things in the era following Foster and prior to Saad/Eddie, during what I've always felt was a Stacked 175 pound class. Brittle hands or Brittle eyebrows will decide this one. No injuries? Conteh by SD, but he's got to turn in a career best night to survive the onslaught. Always loved the Galindez wars.

      Galindez is too tough for flash-in-the-pan Conteh. Ahumada would take Conteh IMO.

        - - Conteh a bit fragile in this fight. Vic was a monster no matter how untutored and walks through all that Fancy Dan boxing.

            Absolutely nothing fragile about Conteh.
            Watch the 1st Saad fight where Saad's corner got away with using banned Monsel's solution.

              Victor beats John by split decision. But they need to hold the fight in neutral territory, some chicanery would occur if not.

                Mate Parlov had layers of plastic skin on his forehead and eyebrows, and was allowed to get away with it.

                  See, stuff like that is not good. I had no idea. But, as you live on, you see the bs some will try to pull to get over.

                    - - Brittle hands by recollection.

                    Early demise from boxing suggests further ailments.

                    Good lookin' kid suggest more interest in the feminine wiles than boxing after making a few quid.

                    Feel free to match them up in U immaculate slice of prime if U wish to carry this further.
