    Vicente Saldivar, the pretty dominant southpaw Featherweight champ of the mid 1960s ... quick, aggressive, and possessing an educated, heavy left hand that he fired effortlessly... Watching film of him, there are some offensive similarities to Manny Pacquaio... Burst on to the big stage with a clinic against Sugar Ramos to take the title, annihlated Floyd Robertson (who had given Ramos life-and-death) and thrice beat the excellent Welshman Howard Winstone

    Davey Moore, the doomed early 60s champ, was fast and highly skilled, Hard right hand puncher, terrific sense of distance... Battered a good champ (Ghana's Hogan "Kid" Bassey) twice and looked sensational in some of his defenses before falling apart after a good start against Sugar Ramos in the fight which ultimately killed him

    Who wins?
