    Many of us have boxed ,probably more than have not.

    My thread is about Lopez's legacy and if it is damaged by him not fighting the flys of his generation ? Not about how he would do against those from other eras. He was a special fighter and I called him a great in my original post.

    I think that it is...By beating Gonzalez and Carbajal, which I think he would have done, then he would be a lock for the elite at flyweight. I think that he would easily outbox Carbajal (who got so lucky in Gonzalez 1). I think he would be too much for Gonzalez, though I think the beristain connection is why this fight never happened.

    LOOK ****** READ MY ORIGINAL POST.

    "Does the great Ricardo Lopez 's status suffer because of his lack of top competition, his weight class ,and or the fact that he never ventured up the weights? ".
    Now compare it with your "interpretation " of it.

    SPOT THE DIFFERENCE:patsch
    One things for sure you'll never be a famous writer, you can't even produce an error free sentence Rainman.
    Name the IBRO members that you know personally , you make it up as you go along.:lol:

    It's amazing that you always find time to **** up threads but never any to respond to challenges on statements that you make.

    It's not a case of should have fought this Fly or that.it's a case of having cheated himself by fighting in an irrelevant junior division that he was absolutely huge in.

    He should have fought at Fly, as should all of the other ones that boiled down to junior-fly and minimum.

    You are a F'n idiot. I was telling you why the IBRO is a good judge of talent. I see you not going there.

    Open challenge. I'll name several IBRO members that I communicate with ( as long as I get their permission since they do not post here ) if you leave this board forever. A third party can be used to verify. Deal? Unlike you, I know the truth. Now go silk away. You waste my time and embarrass yourself. You won't accept, I know it...
