Johnny Saxton vs. Carlos Palomino who wins?

Question

Welterweights 15 rounds

Answer 1

Brent F ~
Should I just go word for word about some obscure article that found on the Internet or what? Geez. Hey Brent, good match up here. In my opinion, I'd have to go with Saxton 55 - 9 - 2 with 21KO's. I think that he fought the way better competition. Palomino 31- 4 - 3 with 19 KO's has losses to both Benitez and Duran, definitely two of my favorites and everyone else he fought are hardly household names to even the most respected fight fan. Saxton's list is long and and distinguished with great names DeMarco (twice) Basillio (3x's) "Tiger" Jones, Giardello and "Kid" Gavilan. Saxton was tough as nails and he could take as well as gave. Towards the end of Palominos career his mind was saving his face and acting and Saxton was forever the fighter.Each of theses guys had their share of losses, always winning more than the lost but the quality of opposition would have to go to Saxtons favor. Saxton 15 round unanimous decision. Thanks Brent for giving me the opportunity to share MY OPINION with you.

Answer 2

Brent F this is a very interesting matchup! I believe these fighters would be very evenly matched with Saxton being a better boxer versus Palomino who has the edge in punching power. Though Palomino fought some tough fighters that Saxton fought tougher competition. I see this as a kind of chess match between smart fighters with Saxton winning a close decision.

Answer 3

Carlos Palomino.

Answer 4

Johnny Saxton was one of the "boys" in the 1950's when boxing was ruled by the mob.The IBC ruled boxing at that time when Jim Norris was the boss of the Chicago area. I beleive this would be a close fight with Palomino winning in the late rounds.

Answer 5

I'll definitely go for CARLOS PALOMINO!!! HMMMMMH!!!!

anyways, for all of you who dont know this great boxer, here's a definition..

Carlos Palomino (born August 10, 1949) is a Mexican former boxer who was a world champion and also a college degree holder. Palomino is also an actor who has been featured in a few movies. He achieved a considerable amount of fame during the 1970s, especially among Mexican and South California fans. He moved to Los Angeles from his native Mexico when he was eight years old, and as a result, many fans actually considered him to come from California, despite the fact he had been born in Mexico.

On September 14 of 1972, he began his professional boxing career with a four round decision win over Javier Martinez. His next fight, three weeks later, was against the same rival and ended up the same way. On November 16 of that year, he drew (word used in boxing for tie) with Ted Liggett in four rounds.

In 1972, his name was becoming more well known in California.This was likely caused by the number of his fights taking place there. He won five fights (one by knockout) in 1973.

In 1974, Palomino went through an increment in quality of opposition. He won six fights and lost one. He beat David Arellano twice, by a decision in ten and by knockout in nine, as well as Tommy Howard, by decision in ten, but he lost to Andy Price, who was a title contender at the time, by decision in ten in San Diego.

Answer 6

stable question sir! i think of this may well be an extensive and aggressive combat between 2 ideas-blowing boxers. Palomino lost an extensive combat to Wilfred Benitez, beat John H. Stracey for the welter call and had a conflict with Armando Muniz. pal McGirt additionally beat some ideas-blowing combatants in the time of his occupation like Simon Brown. i've got confidence in an extensive contest that Palomino ekes out an extensive selection victory over McGirt.

Answer 7

Palomino

Answer 8

Saxton - W 55 (KO's 21) TF 66 - W pct 83% - KO pct 32% - wins over V. Atkins, "Tiger" Jones, Bud Smith and Galivan - KO'ed by Basilio{2}, DeMarco and 2 other ordinary fighters

Palomino - W 31 (KO's 19) TF 38 - W pct 82% - KO pct 50% - wins over Muniz{2}, Stracey and H. Lewis - KO'ed by none

I had always thought that Palomino was a very underrated boxer. Saxton was a good boxer during his time. I have this bout going as a 15 rd majority draw.
