Nelson pts

Loved the Professor. At 126 I could see him edging a close fight. At 130 I would go with Arguello by SD or close decision. I think Arguello was at his best at 130 and Nelson was great at the weight but also a little inconsistent

Nelson, close UD, or split decision, 9-6 or 8-7 in rounds.

Nelson would be at a huge height and reach disadvantage. Sure he was tough,strong good chin and heart and endurance. He had very good skills.

But he would pay a heavy price to get close enough to hit Arguello,who was a natural puncher,both to the body and head.

If Sanchez closed his eye, and stopped him,Arguello is going to ko him after a valiant effort in the 13th-14th rd

The Professor was perfect for The Explosive Thin Man. Arguello by knockout in the championship rounds.

I'd take Arguello to win at any weight.
