Featherweights: Alexis Arguello vs. Barry McGuigan

Post by scorpio83 »

15 Rounds Featherweight Bout

The Explosive Thin Man would out-box McGuigan behind his long jabs and body punches, then he finishes him off by late round knockout after nailing him with a big left hook and right cross. What do you guys think and who do you got?

I think Arguello knocks out McGuigan in 8 or 9 lopsided rounds. Arguello would dominate this fight.

I'll say that Arguello probably wins at 126. Utilizing his Freaky Size,and Power, in that weight division.
Does he Really And Truly "Beat" Barry though..?
Personally,i see a late rounds ref stoppage in this particular hypothetical.
Legitimately Relatively Competitive until then.
Barry Hangs Tough with each passing round, having plenty of moments for his own Glory's Sake.
Barry continues to Battle through thick and thin,as they say, But Ultimately, through Sheer Means of Strength, Will, and Blatant Superior Size and Force,Arguello is able to bust up Barry,pretty decisively by the 9th, and the bleeding continues thereafter, onwards, until the ref has seen enough by the middle of the 12th. Barry in his Burning Pride, Protests the ref's stoppage, but Really, At that point, it's simply a Matter of saving a Proud Man from himself. :geek:

Arguello wins by 13th round TKO. But he better stay out of Ireland.
