    Eh, Arguello in style but there's got to be a better fit in terms of attributes.

    What, a fast combination puncher? Some of them, but not many that look as much like Louis as Arguello did, Alexis just lacks the handspeed.

    There may not be a spot on match for Louis.

    Dude, is that Susanna Hoffs? Would kill for her. Not in a stalkery way but in a nice way. Like say if a stalker were attacking her and I happened to be there watching I'd kill the guy for her.

    Was gunna say Arguello but it's been said. Zarate was similar but less refined, but almost anyone is less refined in terms of power punching than Louis.

    Hogan Kid Bassey

    Offensively elson reminds me a lot of Galindez, once he had settled into his style post-sanchez, but they don't look overly similar in other respects.

    That's much better than being a stalker.

    Edit: Also, I like Juan Manuel Marquez for Louis, and Tito Trinidad for Azumah Nelson.

    Buster Drayton often fought like Nelson when he was on-form.

    The full high guard to pick off punches(mixed in with some solid upperbody movement when needed) while aggressively counterpunching with a mixture of unorthodox looping shots and more technically sound counters.
