Best Little Guy

[oldgringo]

Along with Jose Napoles, Jofre is one of the most underrated and unappreciated fighters of all-time. However, i personaly don't have Jofre in my top 10, though very close, i believe around #11 or 12. Also, his comeback from retirement and winning the featherweight title at age 37 is a greater and more difficult feat than Foreman winning the heavy belt at age 45.

Why would you say it was the more difficult hill to climb? Just curious...

Maybe because Jofre in his 30s had to maintain his weight. Foreman.....well obviously didn't have to, nor did he.

[oldgringo]

That could be true Lu...but by that logic wouldn't Jofre be more inclined and in better shape to compete for his respective title? Foreman letting his weight go doesn't exactly help him compete against younger, in-shape fighters like Moorer. Plus it's not like 37 is that old. 8 years is a pretty big difference.

Old....


It's a long-held belief that the stresses put on the fighters in the lower classes is far greater than those on the bigger guys.


That's why someone fighting & being successful at 126, at 37....is just really something to marvel at.

LIke Daniel Zaragosa was as well. I have seen Zaragosa in person. He ain't all that small.

Chiquita Gonzalez, Fighting Harada, Michael Carbajal, Panama Al Brown, Jimmy Wilde, Pancho Villa, Jeff Chandler, Miguel Canto.....

Jeff Chandler was the man.If not for his eye injury, who knows what heights he could have achieved.

Eric Morel could'nt be too far off. The guy was dominant to say the least.

Pancho villa he was that filipino boxer who messed up jimmy wilde real good and died at 21.

I would also consider micheal carbajal a good lil guy.

But most people do not watch fights below featherweight division.
