Best lightweight you pick Buchanan to beat?

Buchanan was a fantastic all-rounder.

Some people claim him feather fisted, but he was precise and consistent if not concussive, durable, a great mover, almost slick defensively with brilliant fundementals.

I think he would beat Arguello.

I see him beating lower-level swarmers like Ray Mancini, and I think Buchanan would outsmart the still relatively green De La Hoya.

I think armstrong would beat him on PTS as he had a similar style to Duran. However, would he be able to get his head in Ken's chest with Buchanan's superior movement?

I think Prime Ortiz would just pip Buchanan in a decision.

In modern day terms, I can see Buchanan beating Marquez at LW. Having only seen Pac against David Diaz I wouldn't want to make a decision there.

 

That was Charles Manson on speed,still cant make up my mind if that was a low punch or a knee to the nuts. Irrespective ,Duran was getting on top and would have won anyway.

 

Im a huge Buchanan fan,but I dont see him beating a prime Ortiz,check out Ortiz beating Dave Charnley,a very ,very good lightweight.

 

watching ken buchanan is like having a lesson in how you SHOULD box.
i've never seen any boxer,past or present,throw a double jab better than him,his use of the ropes,and his short left hook are top draw.
just like jim watt when the need arose his chin was sound too .

 

Buchanan was good enough to beat Arguello at Light weight imo.

 

Have you seen this fight? Is it out in the public domain? Love to see it.

 

it is bold but i think he can looking at how Lguna beat Ortiz and hoe Ken boxes i think hes perfect for him

I dont think he has the pop to keep Armstrong off of him

i have seen both i tscored the first 1 by 1 point to Ken his rally in the late rounds won it for him but it was more on grit than skill i cant seperate them in their primes

he wont keep him off him all day but he ll give it a go

really even though Ken was a proven 15 rounder and normally dug deep and won the last few. (playing devils advocate here)

wouldnt have the pop IMO

Have you saw Ortiz-Laguna 1 i think ken would do that to Carlos

really Arguello i dont see it. Mancini is a great shout. Ortiz i think would lose closely but win a 3 fight series but the first fight would matter most IMO

is it readily available
