Alexis Arguello vs the ATG Lightweights

Because I'm looking to steal your word for myself. Must. Embarass. Until it's miiiineee

 

Yeah, everyone did that with my theories about Ricardo Lopez. I was mocked for years for saying he wasn't one of the upper echelon greats even in the lower weights classes let alone P4P. Accused of being a 'hater' and not clued up with all those amazing straw's he battered.

And then when McGrain's top 100 thread comes up Lopez barely gets a mention while Canto, Chang, Perez all make the cut :bart

 

Joe Brown is one of the most impressive out fighter on film imo. He had quick hands and a bit of pop to force respect.

Would be interesting seeing Brown rack up points whilst arguello tries to cut the ring off and break him down.

Brown on points for me.

 

Yeah but McGrain has Ray Leonard over Mickey Walker and Barney Ross. And not a single.Scottish fighter. He's gone mad.

Lopez> Chang

 

:fire

Okay I'm not that influential.

Chang beat up Yuh in sparring. Lopez gets battered in sparring :tong

 

Call me mad, but i'd love to see Arguello vs Shane Mosley at 135.

 

Mosley wouldn't make 135 in Alexis' era.

 

Mosley wouldn't make 147 in Arguellos era

 

True.

 

You reckon? What kinda' fight night weights do we have on him from 135 to 147 up to say, Oscar II?

 

It's a slight exaggeration. Slight. But he was a big dammed lightweight.

 

There you go. In most era's likely a welter/middle.

Mosley Vs Moyer anyone?

 

Mosley vs cokes
