    I'd say Caballero. Ponce was good, just a little one dimensional.

    Caballero have a big physical and very technical for the category and he show it during his fight against Somsak.


    But Daniel is also a knockout king.


    Very hard to say who was better.

    Caballero already beat Ponce De Leon and as a big underdog too.

    Yes ! But not during that time I find the Mexican better after but maybe a rematch and the result will be the same also..

    Yeah I think Caballero would beat Ponce De Leon 9/10 times imo. That was just a difficult style for Ponce to deal with.

    Caballero beats Ponce and Vasquez beats the Panamanian,I saw a commenter saying he fought like Hagler,and I think he definitely was(without the stance switching of course)
