Thread: Happy Birthday to the living legend that is Finito Lopez...

Happy birthday to the man, the myth the legend that is Ricardo Lopez Nava aka. Finito.

As I've said for many years the closest thing to perfection as we will ever probably see in the ring. Technically sound, outstanding ring generalship and a tremedous puncher. If any flaws exsist they aren't too visible. Cuyo Hernandez's last creation whom was Ricarods orignal trainer. Beristain tightened things up and finalized the product.

Never lost as an amateur
4 time Golden Gloves winner Open Invitation.
Never lost as a profesional in 2 weight divisions.
23 title defenses (21 consecutive)
WBC, WBO & WBA Minimumweight champion
IBF Light Flyweight champion
Amateur record: 52-0-1
Profesional record: 51-0-1

Watching Finito in action is like watching poetry in motion. There are few boxers who I never get tired of studying and Finito is one of them. He is the perfect txtbook boxer.

What about Ricardo Mayorga.

Yes have to agree he was picture book perfect boxer who could punch. Unappreciated talent. Hope he is doing well in retirement.

Agreed, and he was psychic too. He knew how pissed I was waiting for Bruno/TysonII, so he decided to get 'less artistic' against Villamor and get the job done early, so I just about had enough left in me to watch the 'main event'...
