I thought the dude could hang with Pacman because Pac comes straight at you. Now hang with Marquez is a different story. Maybe it was against a couple of bums. My bad if I'm wrong.
    I think your thinking of someone else man. Calderon weighs 105.

    Are you thinking of Joan Guzman maybe?

          How do you show a Ruiz highlight vid with him getting beat on LMAO. Cotto or Calderon, they are 2 elite level boxers.

              I noticed the poll and the thread title have seperate questions. Being the best is one thing, and being the least likely to lose would be based on the level of opposition you're facing.

              Don't know much about Calderon, I'm downloading his fights against Dieppa and Barrera now.

                Calderon is probably better, but it is impossible to quantify. He's better than his competition than Cotto is anyway. Still, they are both elites.

                  Also, Ruiz isn't from Puerto Rico. He's Puerto Rican in the same way that I am... uh, Polish, or Irish, or something like that, but he isn't from Puerto Rico. Fres Oquendo is the only PR heavy with a pulse (though it is fluttering and extremely light, hah). Boxrec is listing Derrick Rossy unexpectedly as well. I learn something every day! Other potential ones you could have listed to fill out the options: Tito Trinidad (duh), Daniel Santos, Kermit Cintron, Juan Manuel Lopez, and uh... Well, there's crap like Carlos De Leon and Hector Camacho Jr. It is a small island. What they have is pretty incredible.

                    Yeah but Ruiz, Oquendo, and Rossy are all PR-Americans. And I only posted Ruiz because I happened to stumble upon his HL video (I couldn't believe there was one myself)

                      I'd say Cotto then Calderon following.
