    LMR lost 3-1 officially and while Nino was wrecking him Emile was letting the future LHW champion Tiger know what time it is, Napoles got minced by Monzon, Emile gave Monzon his hardest boxing lesson. Your opinion is wrong NERD.

    Just to keep this on track, and for your info, the Napoles /Griffith fight was indeed at 147 as it was for the title, and they both weighed under 145, just saying.

    Nah, Canto has a very good argument JM. Great title run which just seems better the more you research the opponents and performances that make it up. The fact there is a massive amount of film on him and his opponents is also a bonus, which is a strike against guys like Wilde and Wolgast as much as I love them (in a H2H sense anyway).
