This was one fight that I would have loved to see, and it almost happened, it got scrapped when Graziano supposedly broke his hand. They were sort of friends, and from what I heard from old-timers they even fought in and out of the ring in youth dentention centers, Rocky even said he handled him back then. But most old-timers usually tell me LaMotta would have won, both were hard as nails fighters with Graziano the much bigger puncher, while LaMotta had IMO the best chin ever, Fritzie Zivic stated Lamotta was the toughest S.O.B that he ever faced, saying that he hit Lamotta on the button with an uppercut, right on the chin and LaMotta never blinked...Zivic said he broke his hand on Lamotta's chin. As big a puncher as Graziano was, Lamotta took Satterfields punch and he was a terrific puncher, so if Graziano could'nt hurt Lamotta, lamotta would wear Graziano down and score a late rd stoppage, but what a fight it would be!!!!!
