    Granted that the knockdowns for Juan against Manny were mostly derived from speed. But I still think Chico could put him down at least once with his power alone. And while Corrales was never as fast as Manny or Juan, he wasn't exactly John Ruiz in there either.

    yeah that right hand is so amazing,every time he throws i'm like "damn,did he really just land that and not get tagged?"but i think Chico beats Pac at 130 by ud,with knockdowns in the process
    That's a possible scenario as well. It really is a toss up fight, no matter how you slice it.

    And yeah, Juan's right is incredible. The straight right hand is my favorite punch in the world, whether it's a counter, or a lead. And Juan throws the best I've seen since prime B-Hop.

      If anybody ever could put Pac on the deck, it was my boy Chico.

      Corrales would love fighting Pac because Pac fights exactly the way Corrales prefers to fight.

      Manny may be able to put Chico down with a brillaintly placed, quick counter, because Chico went down on many of those. But he always got up more pissed off, and Manny doesn't have the power to hurt Chico.

      I'd pick Chico to take Manny in an 11th round TKO. Manny is too ballsy for his own good, and against a bigger man like Corrales it would cost him dearly.
      that would be the real dream match IMO, that fight going to a decision isn't even a remote possability

        Casamayor in his prime would've beaten JMM in a super close fight. so would Corrales. BUT, JMM has a good chance to outbox Corrales.

            Oh no, no way in hell it goes the full 12 rounds. Someone is getting carried out on a stretcher, and I'd pick that someone to be Manny 9 times out of 10. Chico was just too big, too strong, and too determined.

            I miss that guy nearly every damn day. Real talk. I cried when he died. Not excessive bawling, but I choked back a couple tears.

            He's one of my all time favorites. Heart and balls like you wouldn't believe.

            R.I.P. Diego.

              I dissagree, I got JMM in a close contraversial fight. I dont think he would have got the KO though.

                  Same here, he was one of those guys that you just loved to cheer for. Always gave his all and his personality wasnt ****y or arrogant, a real class act.

                      He was one of very few fighters who, while watching them fight, I felt something for them. I don't know how to describe it, but he made me feel something in my gut, and in my heart. When he won, I won, and when he lost, I lost.

                      The only fighters who I've ever felt that same feeling for are Marco Antonio Barrera and Bernard Hopkins. It's a very short list.

                      yeah when he passed i couln't believe it,then they showed the video of him having fun i felt a tear
                      I'll always remember watching the "Friday Night Fights" tribute to him when they sounded the ring bell 10 times for him with a tear streaming down my face and a lump in my throat.
