I just happened across Lucia Rijker's name and remember what a beast she was in her fighting days. Laila Ali didn't fight some tough opponents her size. Lucia wasn't her size, but it's a fight that is intriguing nonetheless had they met at the right time at a catch weight.

At a real catchweight, I still think Lucia could have taken this one with her superior skill and technique. We've seen Manny move up and get better, I think Lucia was good enough to do so.
