    Sanchez beats FW Arguello. He gets beaten when it was talked about.

    Sanchez too cute for him, such a close fight. Just on points, probably a split at 15 rounds. Rematches would be needed and welcomed by fans.

    Arguello peaked a little north of featherweight. I think Sanchez edges them based on their featherweight fights.

    In 1980, Ruben Castillo fought Arguello in January and Sanchez in April. He has said for years that Arguello was much better than Sanchez and would win by knockout. He knows them better than I ever could so I will take his word for it.

    I think Sanchez outpoints him in a 15 round war

    Sanchez reaching mythical proportions at this point. I dont even know if he beats Pedroza.
    Arguello by clear UD. Better fighter period.

    quite simply he was better! I like both of them, but the thin man was simply better for my money.

    why not?

    Arguello by UD or 14th round stoppage.
