    Calderon vs Donaire (what if)

    God would I love to see this fight. They are only a weightclass apart, if Calderon beats Solis he pretty much has no one else at 108. It'd be pretty awesome.

    So does Calderon have enough to become a 3 weight divison champ? Does Donaire dominate? How does this play out in your mind. I'd think it'd be a close fight for sure, but Donaire can counter well and has the size advantage. Also Calderon could lose some of his speed.

    well i want him to go to 112 before retiring remember he's 32 he wants to unify the 108 division and if he could make that then for sure i would love to see him with donaire.

      Nonito has a very big advantage in weight and he's even fit for bantam. Added to the fact that IMO, only a puncher can defeat Nonito. He'll be too slick for Calderon and the reach advantage as well will play a factor. In that case, Iron Boy's "0" had got to go.

        apart of the fact that nonito would kill ivan, ivan needs to fight edgar sosa, who would also KO him...

              Sosa is really good. Doesn't he remind you of a Nacho Beristain fighter? Really good fundamentals.

              BTW- I've been really impressed with your knowledge on the sport, man. You know your stuff. Props.
