    Jofre would win the most H2H IMO.

    Olivares appears the biggest puncher aesthetically; also very well rounded.

    I fancy Zarate to spring the most upsets. I actually fancy him to beat Olivares.

    Khaokor Galaxy>>>>>>>>All of 'em.

    Always been Olivares, I love him such a skilled but ferocious animal in his prime. Lately Zarate and Panama Brown have hugely gone up in my estimations.

    McGovern was born in my hometown, so he's a personal favorite.

    On film, Olivares is spectacular in his prime.

    Definitely want to delve deeper into George Dixon's career.
