Jeff Chandler vs Orlando Canizales?

You might want to watch Carlos Zarate at 118 before you say that. He was a better boxer and a better puncher than Marquez.

On topic, Chandler has become a very underrated fighter all these years later.

I disagree that Zarate is a better boxer.

What brings you to this conclusion? Break down for everybody why you believe this. Or better yet, what exactly do you know about Zarate other than what you see on boxrec?

He was at his peak in 2003 when he stopped Tim Austin. Marquez is the best bantamweight of the past 40 years IMO

Yes, and your opinion is ridiculous, as previously noted.

I'm pretty certain no one who really follows boxing would agree with this quoted post, but.....you're all about being different over being logical. Enjoy.

Marquez like all Nacho fighters are master boxers who have some of the best combinations and counter punching you'll ever see. Zarate while obviously tall sometimes gave away his height and often struggled fighting inside

Struggled when? This is fiction. His only loss at 118 was a highly dubious decision to Pintor. Zarate was a killer inside and outside, and a better boxer than Rafael Marquez.

I knew he had no idea what he was talking about and would make something up.That's why I asked him to explain it. Mission accomplished lol.

I really like Rafael Marquez. But the only two bantamweights that I've ever seen who could beat Zarate would be Jofre and Olivares. It's just a higher level of excellence.
