Donald Curry vs Jose Napoles at 147

[Woldemar]

Your opinions.

[Esquire]

The Donald Curry that beat McCrorry would have been competitive with any welterweight in history. He was magnificent but only very briefly. He had too many amateur fights (400 wins, 4 losses) and probably stayed at welterweight too long.

As great as Napoles was he was a smallish welterweight. He also cut easily.

Curry by mid-rounds TKO.

Napoles on points close but un

[elmersalsa]

I like both fighters. But, I think Mantequilla was much stronger than the Lone Star Cobra. Mantequilla on points or late stoppage.

[Woldemar]

IMO Napoles would won by decision or late stoppage.

After gorman and the weight and 3 headbutting fights ruined him......even as a shot fighter v mccallum,nunn and norris......curry showed glimpses of brilliance that make me certain he would beaten all 3 in his 1985 prime.....napoles too....in his prime his defence,tactics and all round abilities were exceptional
