    He's holding out till Mijares retires. Then he'll strike :deal

    It'll make my Taylor piece look short in comparison.

    I really don't know that much on past fighters, certainly not enough to do an entry on. I can give bits and pieces here and there, describing a fighters style briefly, but not a sustained amount anyways. I'm very much a mid-90's onwards sort of guy with minuscule knowledge of certain era's(or, to be more accurate, certain fighters) before then.

    Unless I've misread, Finito Lopez hasn't been done yet so I could give him a shot I suppose, just have to re-watch a fight or two to brush up a bit and I'll do it. I'll certainly be on hand whenever Calderon officially retires, and I'll be motivated to do one for him.

    EDIT: What's written above too.:lol:

    I'm gonna' revise the Chang and Greb entries....too short. They won't be as self-indulgent as crammed as some of my others, but they deserve more than the paragraphs I knocked off.

    I just updated my post on Jimmy Wilde. I also included a few videos of him in action. What a treat to watch the greatest Flyweight of all time, the greatest british boxer of all time, and the hardest puncher p4p of all time :deal
