    [QUOTE=1SILVA;4886493] Has anyone have any info on another totally ignored 126 pound champ with a lengthy reign, Antonio Esparagoza? I don't believe any of his fights were ever televised in the U.S.[/QUOTE]


    I want to say that I saw Esparagoza fight on television in the mid to late 80's. Glancing at his record though, it could have only been against Steve Cruz.

        You have to include Pacquiaos run at 130, Morales, Barrera, Valezquez, Solis, Larios

          Don't care what any of you say Floyd was the best at that weight. Just ask any of the champs he beat down at that weight and I'm sure they will tell you.

            Yeah, Manny has to rank up there. I don't think he surpasses Arguello or Floyd, but he's up there.

                Yea I agree, I just thought he should be on the list also.

                  I'll throw another name in the hat.....Azumah Nelson. Would have loved to see him fight Pac, Barrera, Floyd, Morales, arguello or Marquez. He wouldn't win them all, but he would be in every fight. This guy was a joy to watch.

                    Manny would be a force at 130, but not based on his run against old featherweights (except Marquez who was still kicking ass).

                    His first win against Barrera is great (but it was at 126). The second one does not mean much at all.

                      Nelson is a fighter you basically have to love. He is a hardcore boxing fan dream.
