He should never be compared with Monzon's short, limited reach opponents. Not that you are , but somebody here is. And then he attempts to tie them in with great fighters of the past. As I said they were mostly blown up lower weight fighters, Monzon's best that is.
Monzon used his assets against these small men. I don't see any fast handed opponents, very few " big " neutral middle wights. Asside from maybe two guys next to no punchers. And which fighters did they KO?
This is not to say I always pick one of these types to beat Monzon, but it is to say that was never proven!
