    Where does this series rank when it comes to ATG rivalries in boxing history? This trilogy seems to get overlooked nowadays. The first two fights are really well worth watching, while the third fight is unfortunately not available in full but just from the highlights you can already see what a good scrap it is. Chucho was a worthy adversary for Olivares and he was the first to hand him his first loss, not to mention that he never tasted the canvas every time he fought him. I personally think this series fits in nicely as being one of the best all-Mexican rivalries along the lines of Barrera vs Morales, Vazquez vs Marquez, Corrales vs Castillo, etc.
