    Who wins in this ATG BW match up between the swarmer and the puncher? Does Harada drag Olivares into deep waters with his nonstop attack or can Olivares wreck Harada with his crushing power?

    I'd go with Olivares.

    Harada was terrific against Jofre, but Jofre was struggling to make bantamweight by 1964. I don't think Harada could have beaten the Jofre of a few years prior.

    If Olivares is in his best form, I see his firepower eventually being too much for Harada, but it'd be a GREAT fight until the end.

    The Olivares of the Rose fight vs Harada?
    Maybe the greatest fight of all time.
