    Who wins?

    A fight which might break the compubox record for jabs thrown.

    Conteh was a lot better

    Virgil Hill was a paper champion feasting on mandatories in one of the worst eras in the history of 175 ... he never beat a single worthwhile Light Heavyweight and was comprehensively whupped by every good fighter he ever fought... he's the Miguel Angel Gonzalez of 175 ... he was shut down and intimidated by a shot Tommy Hearns

    Pretty harsh on Hill.

    He beat several good fighters, and had a consistent reign, even if it was over mostly shit comp. He was better than MAG.

    I would agree that Conteh in his brief peak was better and would win.

    Leslie Stewart, Fabrice Tiozzo, Bobby Czyz, Henry Maske, and Frank Tate.

    All good fighters, although certainly not great.

    John was better and tougher, but that busted right hand that never healed. Hard one to pick as Hill was no Chump.
    Going 15 there is gonna be a headbutt from Conteh down the line or several of them. Fight will be stopped in the 7th with Conteh ahead and he wins a TD.

    Conteh for me, never really thought that much of Hill. Solid champion but that's about it.
