    Ivan Calderon, the guy basically is already in a win/win situation for the rest of his career, he's 35, undefeated and a two division lineal champ, and the guy only has 6 ko's out of 33 wins, yet he's pretty much a shoe in for the HOF

    Again though he's a light Flyweight, and IMO if you took his fighting style and put it into a 147 body, he would have a way better KO percentage.

    Also a bit pissed off I forgot about him in my list lol. Good one El Terrible!

    You guys ever see Calderon pro debut? He was consider a puncher when he turned pro. Shit was hilarious hearing the announcers talk up his power. He was actually stalking his opponent looking for the KO. He got it in the 2nd round I believe. That shit made me wonder what caused the transformation. Still trying to find out.

    Maxie Rosenbloom is in the Hall of Fame with a record of 207-39-26 with 19 KO's. I've never seen him fight and I guess KO numbers can be misleading sometimes but not that misleading. Also his nickname was Slapsie Maxie.

    I'm surprised he's the only one that thought about Maxie. He's the obvious most successful soft puncher in history of professional boxing.
