    Yuri Arbachakov ruled the Flyweight Division for many years. My dream match : Yuri Arbachakov vs Ricardo Lopez at 112 pounds

    Nice guy. Was a Japanese hero-ish for awhile.

    Figured this needed a bump now that people are paying attention to Bivol. The more I see Bivol the more I can actually see a bit of Arbachakov in his style, just beautiful to watch.

    If you're a fan of Bivol then I recommend anyone to check out Arbachakov.

    Manny Pacquiao defeated the fighter who beat Yuri Arbachanov, it would've been nice to of see Pacquiao vs Arbachakov.

    Arbachakov beat Sasukul first, and then was beaten in the rematch. I think at that point Arbachakov's heart wasn't in it anymore, and had his hand injuries. I think even if Arbachakov beat Saskul in the rematch I think Pac would have beaten him. At his best though I think Arbachakov may have troubled the raw version of Pac, maybe even KO with that lethal right hand. Pac was still unpolished as a fighter and Yuri was also a good counterpuncher like JMM.

    1998 was when Pac beat Sasakul, who was coming off a win over Arbachakov two fights prior.

    Late 90s I believe it's actually one of Pacquiao's most underrated wins IMO.
