    Who wins this absolute war at Flyweight or Super Flyweight?

    Both extremely aggressive fighters with the height of skill added on top. The exchanges would be glorious to watch.

    I would go with Gonzalez but I have only watched a little of Laciar and have him down to watch more of this year...if I don’t get to distracted by the multiple other names I want to delve into lol

    Bump. This would be two forces of nature colliding into each other.

    Bump. Absolute barnburner of a fight. Might have to pick Choclatito in a war.

    Mismatch IMO.

    Laciar was at his best when he narrowed up, taking away, for example, Methaluba's jab, countering with a hook and getting inside for an uppercut. But Gonzalez has more short punches, if not necessarily better, and does not need the invitation to hit with the right that Laciar did even at his very best. Gonzalez would bathe in the luxury of an actual reach advantage and punish Laciar horribly early, but there would be no late exchange of ideas IMO. Gonzalez would keep Laciar under control and while i'm not talking about a whitewash or anything, clear, clean UD in a fight less good than you guys think it would be is my pick.
