    If Daniel Ponce de León prime will try the unification in the past WBO / WBC against Óscar Larios prime who do you think was the best in Super Bantamweight ?

    I don't remember much about Larios, but I do remember that Ponce de Leon was possibly the worst fighter ever to be a world champion prior to K-9 Brundrage.

    Why a worst champion ?? At 122 lbs Daniel Ponce De León was definetely something, Southpaw, high volume of punches, difficult to hit and able to adjust his boxing style from technical to brawling depending on the style of the opponent and took a punch really well in this category.

    Better than Brandon Figueroa currently (who is close to his boxing style) but not on his level for me.

    Thanks for your opinion it's true that Oscar Larios at 122 lbs is not the Larios at 126 lbs that we had after. He refused no one and his two wars with Shigeru Nakazato & Israel Vazquez are memorable fights. He also have two big names at Super Bantamweight : Napapol Kiatisakchokchai and Kozo Ishii.
