    Pete Ranzany

    'I hit 'Pipino' Cuevas with everything in the 1st-Round. I couldn't dent him. I did send him
    back on his heels a few times, but he was so strong."

    "I landed a perfect left-hook on his chin, and my fist bounced off it like it was a block
    of granite. That was the first time I was worried. I was amazed at his chin, as he took
    the punch like it was nothing."

    "In 1978, he would have beaten Carlos Palomino or Wilfred Benitez with ease. Ray Leonard
    was nowhere in his league at that time. And Roberto Duran would have been 'creamed' in 1978."

    "He just hit too hard."

    ~ More Skinny ~

    According to Joey Lopes {Manager for Pete Ranzany}

    "We wanted to take the fight to 'Pipino' in the 1st-Round. We wanted to test both his
    heart and chin."

    "Well, we found out that he had both. In all honesty, we know that Pete would have had
    a better chance against Carlos Palomino, based on styles."

    "Carlos was a plodder, and he always got off to a slow-start. Pete wouldn't have had to
    deal with the heavy-pressure early. It was my mistake, as I should have waited to get
    Pete a shot at Carlos, or even Wilfred Benitez for later in 1979."

    "In 1978, I can't name a better or harder hitting Welterweight than 'Pipino' Cuevas."

    Pete Ranzany

    "I really don't remember anything after that left-hook {1:20 Mark}. I have never been
    hit like that before. 'Pipino' had so much power, that his punches cracked your bones."

    "I had sparred with Carlos Palomino, and I fought Armando Muniz. They were both real
    hard punchers, but neither of them could hit like 'Pipino'. His punches went into you,
    and left you numb."

    According to reports >

    Just after the September 9, 1978 bout with Pete Ranzany.

    Manager - Lupe Sanchez turned down an offer for $300,000 for his fighter {Jose 'Pipino' Cuevas}
    to fight WBC Champion - Carlos Palomino in a 10-Round 'non-title' bout for late-October in
    Los Angeles at The Olympic Auditorium.

    Later it was reported that there was $400,000 'on-the-table' for a WBA/WBC Unification Bout,
    with the bout to be held at 'The Forum' in Inglewood, California for January 1979.

    Manager - Lupe Sanchez wanted a fight purse of $500,000.

    Pete Ranzany

    Took a beating in Round 2, getting floored 'twice' and absorbing a frightful battering
    to the head from Jose 'Pipino' Cuevas.

    Yet, Pete was still on his feet when the bout was stopped.

    A tough guy.

    Back Right > Referee - Isidoro Rodriguez consoles a still upright Pete Ranzany, as the bout
    is stopped at {1:57} of Round 2.
