          flash gets more love from the filipinos than pancho villa. but i think pancho was the greater fighter, despite him dying at such a young age.

              Flash Elorde & the Pacquaio-Cotto Fight

              .... I would rather think of the Pacquaio victory against Cotto as payback to Oscar Ortiz over Flash Elorde .... I saw the black & white film of Elorde in the middle of the ring looking like nailed on the cross on the 14th round ....

                I only saw few of his fights including sandy sadler. I was still looking for the footage of the carlos ortiz fight. I wouldnt call him an average. Defending title over 7 years in a competitive era is not an easy task.
