Hasim Rahman vs. Jose Ribalta

Post by scorpio83 »

10 (or 12) Heavyweight Bout

Rahman would outbox and outpunch the iron big Cuban Ribalta behind his jabs and landing big right hands to either take a decision or knocking him out in 5 rounds. What do you guys think and who do you got?

I think, an in-shape and focused Rahman should win a 97-93, 98-92 type of decision (if it's a 10-rounder) behind his jab. But he would have to survive couple of rocky moments during the course of the fight.

In the 80's, Ribalta was still quite durable. He was also big and could punch.
