    Much as I hate to say, Hamed should be somewhere on there.

    You shoulda listed McClellan also.

    Good list, and a category made for Mexicans!

    Would add Zarate. Have totted out his record a few times lately on other threads. Still amazes me! Even if his early wins were against novices.

    Danny Lopez ended his career with 3 losses. Two against Salvador Sanchez, and one against some no hoper when Danny tried to make a come back in 1992. Prior to the Sanchez fights Lopez had a 92% KO ratio. Given his KO ratio and resume I would definitely put Little Red on the list.

    When you say since 1960, do you mean fighters who were active prior to '60 aren't to be included? Because otherwise Liston deserves a spot.

    And no argument, Gerald McClellan does as well. (Probably Nigel Benn too).

    When I saw Olivares on the original list, I had to bring Little Red up. Danny went down in the first round of their fight, but Olivares went down twice. Ruben went down again in the second round, and Lopez stopped him in the seventh.
