    Marcel took a beating to the body against Arguello.He was definitely tough.

    The bodywork is one of the main reaons i think that fight was a lot closer than some of you do, probably.

    I'd love for Legra-Arguello to surface and see how it went down. When you look at Arguello's record and see W KO1 there with the name Jose Legra in the opponent column, it just looks mental. Actually, it'd be interesting to come to a rough consensus on here as to how people rate him. Maybe in comparison to other champions? Say, ooh, I don't know.........BARRERA? Or, hmmm, let's see.......MORALES?

    Arguello is in my 26-30 bracket P4P. One of the greatest punchers ever.

    A league above the likes of Barrera, Morales, Hell I have him a good 10-15 spots above Olivares, and two or three places above Harada and Jofre.

    Don't know about the official weights but if you watch the tape if anything it looks as if Arguello is a weight class above Marcel.

    Of course, he did that on the regular against just about every one.
