    Didn't Patrick Ford lose a very close fight to Salvador Sanchez? I believe it was a split decision and Sanchez was in his prime.

    Then I believe Ford fought E. Pedroza and Pedroza just mugged him, if I remember correctly.

    I'd say in the last 10years, the 80s and 90s were great

    Yeah he lost a majority dec. to Sanchez in a fight I thought Sanchez pulled out by a point and then unfortunately met Pedroza on his best night as a pro and got ruined.

    To me, the Ford that faced either of those guys would beat the likes of Morales, Barrera and Marquez. I thought he was that good a fighter...
