Since i posted this thread i spent 8 months at a pro boxers gym and sparred a few guys who are currently turning pro and a lot who were decent amateurs. None of whom are as small as calderon then again none of them are as technically good as calderon but i still stand bye my original statement that calderon wouldnt ko me. He is the size of a 12 year old boy and cant ko guys his own weight.
Im not disrespecting Calderon as he was a greeat champion but he is tiny. He doesnt have the reach to get inside imo and hurt me without me pushing him back with a jab or a lead right or even steping back out of range.
Paulie would stop me in 1 or 2 rounds but i doubt calderon does..

also in those 8 months ive never been dropped in sparring and fought guys who are up to 6 foot 4" and outweighed me by 2-3 stone...
I have been hurt a few times but not enough to go down and i always recovered enough to get the jab off and back up and compose myself against some big hitters

I would KO you. I am 5' 8" 150lbs, you'd outweigh me and have the height advantage but i'm used to sparring guys your same exact size/height, and even bigger. Heaviest guy I sparred was 230lbs back when I was 130lbs, he knocked me down twice but both times were "glove grazing the canvas" kind of KD's, I broke his lip. He did hurt me pretty bad though, left my ear ringing for a week. After him I didn't pass sparring guys 210lbs. I actually don't spar anymore and haven't done so in 4 years, but I am confident I would KO you and you wouldn't hurt me or KD me.. 6' 180lbs is nothing, you'd be a snack.

We are similar size TS and I have some experience training and sparring and am in good shape, but not fighting shape I am a weight lifter and into general fitness. I don't think Calderon would ko you or me either for that matter but I would be worried about going 12 because sparring 3 full 3 minute rounds at a good pace is pretty tiring.

I find this thread impossible to take serious. OP is an untrained bum, with absolutely zero experience. He probably has never taken a punch to the face and operates off theories from his own egotistical mind. I bet in his world he could step in with Adonis Stevenson and it would be a case of whoever lands first is winning. Reality is a lot different to your own fantasy land. Stick to playing video games and being a champion to only yourself.

Also what about Mallignagi? I think he would UD me but I doubt he would KO me.. I think there is more chance of me KO'ing him than him KO'ing me as I think 4 stone is too much to give away to someone in good shape and with a decent boxing knowledge and fundamentals
