Underrated......

[eagle]

Most underrated fighter all time. Alexis Arguello. This man was the man for so long in some of the lower weight divisions, and deserves to be as famous as fighters like Duran, yet ask casual boxing fans who he is and most wont know.

CC#102 on me eagle for mentioning 'El Flaco Explosivo' defintely underrated and under appreciated.

The man is legendary...... He is the ONLY boxer whos been Champion in 3 weight classes, defended every title he had at least once and NEVER lost a Championship fight. I think he does get placed low in all time P4P rankings and he is less talked about then the likes of other fighters who did less then he.
I've had that avatar picture of him dropping 'El Puas' from day 1 here at Saddos, I changed it once to commemarate Sanchez vs. Gomez.

It was actually ppl such as yourself that put me on to Arguello, and if i'd never gone on this site i'd probably not realised how great he was. Thats the main reason i see him as underrated.

Man eagle then you would have had some fun with 'tuctan' and I before he and I used to chat on threads and thru PM's about Arguello and many other latin fighters. tuctan hasnt' posted here in over a year I would say but to me his posts still echo here. tuctan was also from Nicaragua and has fought in 2 wars and survived a illness that landed him in the hospital. He had lived in Nicaragua, Mexico, Los Angeles, Florida and other places.
I learned a lot from tuctan....

I think i remember the name. Sounds like an interesting guy.
