Where does Orlando Canizales rank on ATG lists?

I would assume anywhere from 55-70 all time. I may be underrating him though.

 

he is not an ATG imo...in the same boat as izzy vazquez and jl castillo

 

Up there with the best bantams and in fact one of the best fighters I have seen.

If your being objective though he doesnt really have the names on his record to be top 100.

 

That would be very much overrating him, unless of course you're basing it solely on ability, in which case you could argue him higher.

 

asero you know jack ****

you probably never seen him fight.

 

he is not an ATG...if he is, he should have been in the HOF years ago...

 

I think he may have had ATG Abillity but just doesn't have the names on his record to push him to that level.

 

For the love of God and your own life, stop posting.

 

yeh hes a bum i forgot. Along with that guy Ray Robinson and Willie Pep

:good:deal

Asero on the guys you post about how many have you actually seen?

 

I don't know, maybe it's that he didn't unify the title in his division..that could be the only knock against the guy. Other than that, he was superb, and I think he could have unified and sewn it all up for himself. I ALWAYS enjoyed watching him, and thought that he fought with a great balance of skills and power. I believe that he is sadly under estimated by fans of this day and age.

 

He is underestimated a lot of times by ommision...by myself included for simply not mentioning him as much as other greats of the past, and he deserves better..and a higher estimation of his title reign and being a classy well balanced fighter.

 

On sheer ability, I'd plave him at 40-45 based on competition and not unifying the titles, at 50-55.
