I rank him as the one of the best pound for pound punchers of all-time

When I first looked at this bout, I automatically picked Zarate by KO. I see that Brown was never KO'ed. As I said it is hard for me to rate '20's and '30's fighter because I can't judge their opposition. Al was a good boxer and his reach would have kept Carlos off of him. Zarate would have forced the fight and this pressure had him winning his first championship decision instead of a KO. It would be a majority decision.

Answer 2

Brown would keep Zarate off of him with his 76 inch reach to win 15 round decision. Zarate had great KO power but Brown had fair power also. In a mild upset I go with Brown. Both great fighters.

Answer 3

i do not comprehend too a lot about brown, yet there's no denying that both he and zarate were 2 of the superb bantamweights ever. in spite of the undeniable fact that i'm gonna %. zarate by way of overdue stoppage or decision. it truly is puzzling to %. adverse to zarate at this weight. perchance jofre or mcgovern might want to triumph over zarate, yet i do not see every person else doing it at 118.
