    Omar Narvaez is the 39 year old 5'3 Flyweight-Super Flyweight with a 46-1-2 23 KO's record. Unfortunately most of us know him from his survival quest match against Nonito on HBO, but he is legendary in his division and had no business moving up that high in weight, only to be remembered as another Donaire victim. But he is far more than that, this grizzled veteran has one of the more impressive records of any currently active fighter and deserves more respect for his accomplishments that are basically unknown to most US fans. So here is a look at another great Argentine that never quite gets the attention he should.

    :deal Definitely deserves more cred. It's pretty remarkable he's still fighting at that level at his age and the other remarkable thing is he beats his opponents in their backyard. He'll be tough to beat, very sound technician too.

    He looked sensational against Hisataka. I'm not going to pretend Hisataka is elite but no one had done that to him before.

    I remember he surprised me with how decisively he beat Cesar Seda Jr. (back when Seda was supposed to be the next huge thing)

    The same Seda that made LSC look less than great.
