Don't know many fights in this weight so I need your guy's help on listing a few of them. I've seen the Eguchi vs Eguchi fight (it was mindblowing) and I've heard Ricardo Lopez vs Rosendo Alvarez were great too but I need confirmation.
There are people on public television's broadcasting people that will make scrawny, very easy to lift fake animal humanoids and they will have holes in they rumps and then a person will put their hands up in there and move around the fake artificial mouths of the creatures and then they pretend they aren't doing that but it's really them doing it. What makes that any different than when they pit up against each other these little dudes for the amusement of the camera? I cannot honestly even think of a single reason.
The first Lopez-Alvarez fight was pretty average IMO; shows that Lopez was not invincible. The rematch - which happened at 108, not 105 - was really good, though. Akira Yaegashi vs Pornsawan Porpramook and Kazuto Ioka were two really, really good fights. The fight with Porpramook has one of the best rounds I've ever seen. Yaegashi's whole career is worth watching of you haven't gotten into him. A proper blockbuster warrior. Another warrior in almost the exact same mold as Yaegashi is Katsunari Takayama. His fight with Fransisco Rodriguez Jr. is one of the most action packed fights I've ever seen and was my pick for best fight of 2010-2019.
Thanks, George. I just really hate when people exaggerate fights and you end up disappointed when you watch it...
If I remember correctly Alvarez didnt even make weight for the rematch altough he wasmoving up in weight. But yeah,a great fight.
Besides the ones George mentioned. Here are some which I think are worth a watch. Pradabsri vs Menayothin I & II. Porpaoin vs Niida. Takayama vs Eagle Den. Nietes vs Porpramook. Gonzalez vs Vargas. Oleydong vs Rachman. Gonzalez vs Takayama.
Rematch was at minimum weight but Alvarez didn’t make the weight. I still consider it a straweight fight though as López defended his title and won Alvarez’s. That was a truly great fight. I love watching Finito and that was his toughest fight so such an enjoyable viewing for me.
