    I've seen highlights of that fight about 6 minutes of it. What a war it looked. What stood out for me was that uppercut Herrera landed.

    A few of my uploads, since I'm an admitted Olivares fanboy.

    People forget Zarate laid off 3 years from his loss to Pintor 1979, to come back and fought twice for the WBC Super Bantamweight Title in the late '80's (whether he deserved the title shots or not):

    Zarate vs Jeff Fenech (1987)

    Zarate vs Daniel Zaragoza (1988)
    1988-02-29 : Daniel Zaragoza 121¾ lbs beat Carlos Zarate 121½ lbs by TKO at 2:54 in round 10 of 12
    Overhand lefts stop Zarate in the tenth round of his final ring appearance, as Zaragoza wins the vacant WBC Super Bantamweight title, in what proved to be the first of Zaragoza's record twenty consecutive WBC Super Bantamweight title bouts, ending his career with a title bout loss to Erik Morales at age 39 in 1997.
