    I don't think this one has been done before.

    De Jesus by stoppage I agree. I lived 6 blocks from the Garden in 1972 when he beat Duran but in those days had no extra money to buy tickets as I was in school. De Jesus had a great career and was a Great Puerto Rican fighter. As much as I liked Chico he would never last here. GS

    Chico would get hit far too much... He'd be game and brave, but he's getting knocked out eventually

    De Jesus by later round TKO sounds about right.

    The difference in defense is decisive here. Be a good fight though.

    Yeah I agree.

    DeJesus was a sharpshooter in the purest sense. He would know exactly what punches Corrales was gonna throw and he put on a counter punching clinic here. Not to forget his excellent defense.

    I think DeJesus does a similar job to what Mayweather did if not quite as spectacular.

    DeJesus TKO 11
