    Paul Spadafora (prime at LW) vs today's LW's

    Ring top 10

    Champ: JMM
    1) Rios
    2) Soto
    3) Guerrero
    4) John Murray
    5) Katsidas
    6) Acosta
    7) Paulus Moses
    8) Antillon
    9) Miguel Vazquez
    10) Tony Demarco

    WOW! I see amazing matchups from top to bottom. I love Spaddy, but I see a lot of guys giving him problems here. I think he beats Soto, Guerreo, Murray, Kats, Moses, Antillon, and Demarco

    Miguel Acosta vs Paul Spadafora would be an amazing fight IMO. Acosta with his quick flurries and Paul with his inside work in Acosta's face all night.

        Spadafora would outbox the living hell out of John Murray, different class of fighter.

        When did Murray get drastically promoted to that ranking?

        What in God's name has John Murray done to earn that ranking? He has looked like **** recently.

          You're the Brit guy, lol, I have no idea, but look at the guys they have behind him. LW is DEEP right now. Vasquez and DeMarco are real fighters, not like 9-10 at MW

            I'm just astounded that John Murray is ranked so highly due to doing absolutely nothing in his entire career. Caught me a little off guard.

            Lightweight's pretty good right now, some good fighters there.

            I think a prime Spaddy beats most of them. Considering Rios is inexperienced, Murray is **** and the others beneath them are good fighters but think would fall short to a prime Spadafora. Who was quite well thought of once upon a time.

            A fight with Soto or Katsidis would be great.

            Marquez puts a beating on him.

            Gurerro I think beats him up too.

            I'm a big fan of Gurerro. Stand up guy.

            I met him back in 2010 in Vegas right before his fight with Escobedo. Such a nice guy and an excellent fighter IMO with alot of potential.

                No.

                The same ROBERT GURERRO that fought for his dying partner.

                The one I met before his fight with Vicente Escobedo in 2010 like I specified?

                Yeah, that one.

                  I have Rios outhearting him a la Acosta, I have spaddy as waaaay to slick for Kats and soto, paul was a huge LW and he would be able to stun soto and outslick him enough for the decision. I can't get over that french guy boxing soto up a little bit on the undercard of pac-hatton. soto no bueno vs spaddy's style.
                  I got Vasquez and Acosta even money, probably favor spaddy maybe a little.

                  Jmm is probably just a bit too much for spaddy.

                  Spaddy's one of my favorite fighters BTW, I love his style, dudes like Sweet Pea, Toney old Floyd, Spoaddy, and to a lesser extent Collazo are my favorite style
