    Do you guys remember Geraldo? First guy to drop Leonard gave Hagler a tough fight but was smoked by the Hit Man Hearns? Geraldo was a good tough fighter and tall for his weight 6-0 he also had a good punch and fought in between welter and Light Heavy, but he was often inconsistant but when he was on, he could give the best of them all they wanted (ask Leonard,Hagler).

    Angulo is looking pretty good right now, yey there are obvious weak points but he hits hard and is relentless with a good chin, kind of reminds me of a prim Yori Boy. Who do you guys like in this fight?

    Geraldo by decision or late stoppage in Cintron-like fashion......if he could drop Leonard, he can drop Angulo, who is not an elusive boxer.....and if he can give Hagler a tough fight, he can beat Angulo.....Angulo doesn't punch like Hearns, so I don't see that scenario playing out......if Geraldo's on his game, gotta go with him.

    You've always had respectable thread starting balls, man. Angulo making his way into Classic. That's an idea, my man.

    Angulo has impressed me in his last two fights.

    However, Cintron never really hit him with anything to prove his chin IMO, and he's still slow as Hell.

    I like Angulo, but not massively impressive IMO. Sergio Martinez won't lose many rounds against him IMO.

    Instead of looking at boxing records try watching the fight. It was mysteriously erased from the record books(but not videotape) as SRL was the hottest prospect in years. The record books say Kevin Howard was the first but it really was Marcos Geraldo.

    I agree he is limited but still a very dangerous fighter. Id put him on par with a Prime Yori Boy.

    Hey he is an OLD SCHOOL BRAWLER. He might not have old school boxing skills but in a sense hes a throwback.

    Besides i knew none of geniuses on the General would know who Marcos Geraldo was.
