    I generally believe that Benitez is a candidate for greatest 140 lb'er ever based simply based on his performances at that weight and he is also my favorite fighter ever at that weight. His domination of Cervantes just sticks in my mind. He generally looked dominate at this weight and just in his own class.

    How do some of you rate him at this weight?

    Not sure where I rate him but yes he was one of the best fighters I have seen at this weight limit.

    Pam Greer's breasts are also some of the best I have ever seen.

    But you can only see part of them in the picture. You might find that when the rest of them are exposed she has square nipples. Where do you stand on square nipples?

    He was vey good at 140. However very young and undisiplined. As short as it was Benitez' two victories were his best at 154. Against Duran & Hope. He was mature fast, dedicated & made few mistakes. He also gave Hearns a hard fight at that weight.

    He had a tendency to be over aggressive which was not his strengt, he was pure boxer. It got him in trouble against Bruce Curry.
