    Is your period coming up? You're so passive aggressive?

    There was a reason why he was nicknamed the explosive thin man

    Arguello is often mentioned as the greatest 130 fighter of all time. Certainly top 5.

    Eh, most people that know their **** rate him highly. Can't see the video in the op but the Mancini ending combination was a beauty and the way he finished Kobayashi was punch perfect.
    Atleast top 2. The only other with an argument is Floyd, and that's when taking H2H abilities into equation. Resume wise Alexis stands above all at the weight.
