Shit! I hate these kind of topics cause you always feel like you left out about 5 names...
Here goes then.....
Jorge Paez - Tho I was only 5 when I attended one of his fights in Mexico, I became a huge fan as my uncles & dad watched him fight on tv in Mexico we followed his entire career from the Zorro costume, the nun, the bride, the 'No Smog' haircut up until his last fight. A fighter and yet and entertainer a true GREAT in my books.
JCC - What can I say I mean from being at my uncles house charging 5 dlls. at the door and hosting all of his fights. Watching him get beat by MTaylor and then doing one of the most amazing things I've ever seen in boxing to watching him get beat for the 1st time against Randall and almost being in tears. To his last fight.
Alexis Arguello - Class act guy, as a fighter and as a person. The 1st Arguello fight I saw was agains Royal Kobayashi where Alexis put on a clinic. Now I've seen a lot of Alexis fights and it seems like it's getting harder and harder to get a hold of now that I have somewhere to store them. Alexis IMO will forever be underrated in skill and P4P status.
I'll post about a more recent one.
Rafael Marquez - I gotta say what shitty management I mean for his 1st pro fight he fights Rabanales?? WTF? That's insane... Anyway he gets past that and moves on. I remember seeing him fight 'Too Sharp' man those were some goood as fights right there. Too Sharp had his moments and was fighting dirty but Rafa started fighting fire with fire and while Too Sharp was moving well Rafa was able to catch him with some solid punches and rocked Too Sharp bad and had him on spaghetti legs.... The fight when to the cards and Too Sharp was announced the winner but the scores were added wrong so they tallied up the points and Rafa was awarded the win. They rematched months later and Rafa put an end to the contreversy by KTFO! Too Sharp in the 8th round.![]()
