Ivan Calderon
Height: 5'0"
Weight: 108 pounds
Total Fights: 36
Ko victories: 6
Also former lineal champ at 108.
This thread is an offshoot of the thread made a while back asking if members here can take on Pacquiao in the boxing ring 1 on 1. So same question but different fighter and from a different weight class.
Re: Do you think you can take this guy in the boxing ring?
That Pac thread was my creation. Probably my defining moment on here to be honest. ;D
Back to the question at hand:
I'm 6"2, 13 stone and have a good reach.
He'd absolutely batter me.
Re: Do you think you can take this guy in the boxing ring?
Of course I can
with my 200 lb buddy. And I'll be there to back him up.
Re: Do you think you can take this guy in the boxing ring?
Thing is we might think oh he's little and we could take him but we probably wouldn't even be able to land a single punch. A couple months back they had shane mosley on shaq versus and well shane won, and that's against another athlete that has like a foot and a half on him and outweights him by 150lbs, not just an average joe. So safe to say I'd get my ass kicked

If I had a year to prepare with Anglo Dundee as my trainer and was in the best shape of my life!
He'd still kick my ass!
Re: Do you think you can take this guy in the boxing ring?
People that have never even sparred have no idea how taxing it is to box.
Most regular dudes who think they're in decent physical condition will gas out in about 3 or 4 minutes of hard sparring...and then you're finished even if it's against a little guy who's in fighting trim.

Re: Do you think you can take this guy in the boxing ring?
If the ring is no bigger then my walk in closet....we agree to single 1x3 minute round....he wears 12 oz gloves and I wear only duct tape....Joe cortez is the ref and will spend total of 1:30 intervening and unnecessarily stopping flow of fight.....then yes, yes I could take him !!!:mad:
Re: Do you think you can take this guy in the boxing ring?
He'd knock me out with a body shot approximately 11 seconds into the first round. I would probably cry.
Re: Do you think you can take this guy in the boxing ring?
If it was no rules at all, I recon he'd jump my lame attempt at a double leg sweep and spark me.
Bonus: Getting to look up the ring girls miniskirts as Im stretchered out.

Hasn't Madonna tried to adopt Calderon?
Re: Do you think you can take this guy in the boxing ring?
This guy was bordering on the p4p rankings before anyone even recognised him :D
Re: Do you think you can take this guy in the boxing ring?
i am a good swimmer so i know i can beat him.
Re: Do you think you can take this guy in the boxing ring?
Okay I'm 6ft 5 and weight about 105kg and iv'e got about 79'/ 80' reach so fuck it, I'm going out on a limb to say I'm pretty sure I could manage this guy for at least 2 rounds.... 5 at a push... Or however long my lungs could hold out.
I don't care, as longs as I'm fit enough, there's no way could any guy of 5ft ZERO could beat me in a fight. I don't care even if you name is Ivan Claderon, I just wouldn't let it happen.
It absolutely offends me to even consider the possibility. I mean really!!
Seriously!
Surely not!
Right? :-\
Re: Do you think you can take this guy in the boxing ring?
I think he'd beat me because the law says so. Hitting him back would be borderline child abuse. I think I'd let him hit me, say "awww bless" ruffle his head, then pick him up and take him home and keep him in a rabbit cage as a pet.

Well, if he piss me off well enough, of course! Mind you... I have excellent health benefits, Blue Cross-Blue Shield of Illinois!
