    Was limited due to bad footage quality.

    So smooth, like some sort of pale yellow dairy product.

    In most of this stuff he's past prime. Similar to Hagler in that, once the speed was gone, he started missing punches and looked beatable.

    '70 and previous, he was quick enough to look unbeatable.

    That's the thing, though. Most of these Cuban fighters can be timed to the right beat. Watch their footage, study their tapes, and you'l realise their style is nothing a little Samba music can't solve.

    Its almost too obvious. That's why no one has picked up on it.

    Sometimes he seems to just barely touch fighters and they go flying. That right hand spun people.

    Unreal counterpuncher. Kind of funny how if I shared a ring with him, I'd be petrified to let my hands go.

    Mantequilla could have easily been a three division champion if given the chance. Simply amazing fighter.

    that second one from the top is that lethal uppercut that finished Lopez.

    in some of those knockdowns it looked like he threw punches to punish his opponent for the impunity of hitting him. almost as if to make sure everyone knew their place...and it was on the mat
