    you guys need to brush up on your boxing. great careers mean fighting the best. thats something he never did. he beat guys with garbage records or coming off loses...and never fighting a champion from the WBA, IBF, or WBC....you know the other guys who are actually good.
    i'm glad wbo title defenses against 14-4-1 fighters are ones that make you great. :good

    Your boxing knowledge is that of filipinos, YDKSAB.

    Calderon was the universally recognized best at 105 and wanted to fight other titlists, but others such as Rachman were content to defend their titles at home in countries like Indonesia- a constant problem with many lower weight classes.

    Then he went up in weight against the undisputed/Ring/Lineal champ Cazares who was over 6 inchest taller and weighed over 20 lbs heavier than Calderon on fight night..and they fought twice.
