    Excellent point. IMO he is the #1 underrated fighter out there (along with Valero)

    easily it's ivan calderon. like another mini supremely skilled fighter, Finito Lopez, he will get noticed until late in his career. i agree, valero has not beaten a name fighter and is most likely overrated. i think ivan and vic are the most underrated, they beat the best in their divisions to be the best. chis john a solid fighter, but he DID NOT beat jmm. he almost got ktfo by rocky juarez! he's more like the gecko, he's no dragon!

    The small guys usually never get enough credit. If Vic can fight at 122 then he won't be nearly as underated. 122 is basically the smallest division at the moment where fighters can get deserved credit.

    Soto can beat him at both 130 and 135.

    Guzman would make a guy like Valero look like **** as he would be swinging for the fences and never land a significant shot.

    Juan Diaz also beats him.

    JMM carefully operates on him like a surgeon then sends him to sleep within 10.

    Pac destroys him at 135 also.

    Soto no way.
    Guzman maybe.
    Diaz would be KO'd.
    Jmm moved to 140.
    Pac moved to 140 but would not fight anyone good that's under 30 yrs. old. lol

    Humberto Soto is a dangerous man. He gets my vote for unrated boxer!
