    A New Year is coming, why don't you give us an original thought for a change.

    Agree 100% Jofre would beat Olivares and Zarate IMO

    What d'ya mean, that you're surprised Dempsey has got votes or that you also think he's overrated? I know you're a big Wills admirer, so I'm guessing the latter.

    How do you think the Africans stack up them, I'm guessing you rate Kalambey highly.

    Really, I don't think i could surely say if Jofre could beat either of them, If anything i think Olivares footspeed would be too fast for Jofre.

    A New Year is coming does that mean a new account for you?

    Horrible title competition, didn't match the most dangerous of his era, some people have him in their top three.


    Jofre beats Zarate, Olivares beats Jofre, Zarate beats Olivares. Aye min?

    I think if Olivares doesn't fare well in exchanges with Zarate like so many others did (although I feel Zarate wasn't completely made of steel and I think Olivares could hurt him) he can full back on his boxing and mix up his approach.

    I feel Olivares would outpoint Zarate.

    Olivares vs Jofre I'm fine either way, but I just feel Jofre has the mettle to keep himself in there, both men like to mix their approaches up.

    Don't know whether it's an interesting point or not but I don't feel Zarate's dimensions help him out so much here. He likes to lean in when he turns his punches over and I feel Olivares and Jofre will be able to use small head movements/blocks to set up their own short punches on Zarate.

    Based on the fact that I saw Rodolfo Martinez briefly wobble Zarate:lol:From a southpaw stance:lol::lol:

    aye, I can see that but i can see them all beating each other at least once in a series of 3. But i think for winners of series you are correct.

    Was it Fenech that was about to become the first to be a four division champ?, his "loss" to Nelson derailed that?
