    Excellent pick, my friend.

    Thats where i have him ranked as well. :good


    But really, Saldivar gets so underrated that its actually pretty disturbing at times.

    Vicente is definitely a fighter you really have to discover on your own to see what he really accomplished. He's not going to be atop the lists in publications, nor the subject of documentaries. He's a relatively unknown ATG, no where near as popular as a Julio Cesar Chavez or Roberto Duran; not even compared to a Sal Sanchez, Alexis Arguello or Wilfredo Gomez.

    I can't see how you can have Barrera and Morales seperated by that much in all honesty...And having someone like Lopez and Zarate ahead of Morales, but below Barrera..:huh

    Are Finito's achievements laughable?

    There is not much difference between fighters on these lists.

    I am in awe of Lopez's consistency over more than a decade and, of course, that sterling goose egg.

    Lopez defended 21 times; Canto, 14.

    Olivares was notoriously inconsistent, particularly as a champion; yet, because of his all-time formidability as a puncher, I would consider flipping him and Canto.

    As qualities go, Saldívar is awesome and matches up very well against the other men on the list; but his résumé is a tad short.

    Saldivar actually may well have the best resume of any of them, or at least on a par.
