    Had Yuri Arbachakov entered the ring against Carbajal, Gonzalez, and Johnson, how would have he had fared? Maybe it is a stretch, and this can be ignored if you believe so, but what would have happened had Lopez and Arbachakov crossed paths?

    Good fighter largely forgotten. Lopez is a bridge to far but he could hold is own with the other guys mentioned.

    Yuri and "Too Sharp" fought at flyweight. Gonzalez and Carbajal fought at light fly and Lopez fought at straw and light fly

    That's quite apparent, but this is a hypothetical realm where Gonzalez and Carbajal bridge that 4 pound gap, and Lopez maybe does, as well. Imagine the original eight classes were still in place.

    Did Arbachakov ever have a gloriously sleazy stache like Nazarov had?

    Because everytime I see his name it's Nazarov I actually picture in my head.

    :lol: No, Arbachakov wanted his face like his punches, clean.
