Well it's by no mistake that I have that pic. in my avatar yes it's one of my fav. fights.
Now that I think about it this fight is also my fav. passing of the torche fight, meaning from 1 great fighter to another.
To clear that up Olivares is an ALL-TIME and lost to Arguello who became an ALL-TIME that's what I mean by passing of the torch.
About the fight well Olivares was there thru 12 most defintely. I did have Olivares ahead by 2 rounds IMO Olivares began to tire out and I think he knew he wasn't gonna be able to go the 15 rounds fighting the way he had been fighting so in the 12th he pretty much threw all the punches he had left in him and went for the KO. He managed to land some really solid shots but couldn't hurt or drop Arguello. If you watch the fight closely when Olivares walks back to his corner pay close attention to Olivares walk his body language indicates hes done all he could. Come the 13th round Arguello just brought on the pain and finished off a tired Olivares.
