Flyweight: Wilde vs Labarba. The aggressive knockout artist against the iron-chinned technician, classic matchup. Bantamweight: Zarate vs...
I think this thread has been done before, but I had to laugh at this guy's career: Sergio Enriquez 1-0-0 taking the scalp of unbeaten 21-0 Jose...
That's a good question I don't think you can say SRR and especially Hearns would beat them all. Guys like Briscoe and Valdez would potentially...
Just wondering if two great fighters ever matched up when relatively unknown, can anyone think of any? There are a few in the amateurs but I can't...

P4P Hearns is better, but not at 168.
When has Calzaghe been hurt in a fight? He's had a couple of flash knockdowns but never been seriously hurt, let alone stopped. He also has fairly...
