    I dont think he would be too fussed, as he wrote it in the first place.

    :lol: Not to sure chief, I was being a little bit overzealous about my admiration for those two fighters in particular.

    Anarci, where do you rank Lopez P4P and for what reason. You must have a general system?

    He has him top 30. Unjustifiable IMO but he has his reasons.

    :lol: I was trying to compromise with Anarci but he wasn't having any of it. Marco had a better inside game than Lopez and proved it, whilst also showing the capacity down the stretch that he could fight off the back foot behind an educated jab expertly as well.

    Lopez really didn't have an inside game.

    Perfect punching form though.

    1. Julio Cesar Chavez
    2. Ruben Olivares
    3. Salvador Sanchez
    4. Vicente Saldivar
    5. Baby Arizmendi
    6. Miguel Canto
    7. Erik Morales
    8. Marco Antonio Barerra
    9. Carlos Zarate
    10. Ricardo Lopez

    As I mentioned in a thread a while back..its probably not really fair yet to rank Morales and Barerra definitively because their careers only ended so recently. I said this about where they sit in regards to Zarate..a lot of people still see him above and for good reason..but Im fairly sure they will eventually slot in above Carlos on my list, so Ill put it like that.

    Also like been said a couple of times already that last 5 could really be ranked anyway you want...I reckon I have about 5 equal 11th's that I contemplated putting in.

    Morales over Canto?
    Nah!

    Morales beat Pacquiao while Canto did not have a dominating win

    Canto I think has the most 15 round title defense wins by decision he has 13 of them a record that has no equal. He was the Mexican Willie Pep.

    Trasero gets it wrong again.

    Just so you know Canto beats Nonito.
