    Which current boxers from Strawweight to Flyweight (105-112lbs) would you pick to definately hand Ivan Calderon his first ever defeat?

    I might pick Roman Gonzalez even though differant weight classes. Ivan has had so many close calls lately.

    Not even if Calderon was shot in the leg...Giovanni is a terrible slow boxer
    I think Ulises "archie" Solis is a better top fighter with real skills. Archies speed can deffinitely match Calderon punch for punch. I also think Sosa gives Calderon a run for his money.

    Giovanni cuts off the ring, has a 4-inch height and 6-inch reach advantage, and throws devastatingly powerful shots with accuracy. Caldy wouldn't stand a chance. Eventually the Aztec Warrior would stalk him, wear him down, and finish him.

    Calderon is on his way out. Once his legs start to betray him even a little more, he is toast. He's going to lose to somebody odd if he doesn't retire.

    It think personally that it is worth risking Gonzales, but it'll never ****ing happen.

    to 112? calderon cant fight past 108 and even that weight is too much for him.. he can easily make 105 if there's money and a good fight to be made.. the only reason he went up was because he couldnt find a big fight at 105

    :hat

    Agreed, great little fighter but he is definitely on the slide. Shame the lower weights don't get too much exposure as he is/was a quality operator.

    I know its not really adding to this threat, but At this point good ol' father time will be helping whoever it is, if he does lose his 0 before he calls it a day.
