      any combo of those would have been brutal...it would have been interesting to see if Chiquita would have been able to 'bully' into Finito's inside game and the best woulda been to see if Finito could have stood Carbajal's power
      I see finito's best chance vs Chiquita to get off first and last and by first I mean at least a 2 punch combo, not just a jab. chiquita would stop his bumrushes when he would get thrown at a lot before he let his hands go...i'd favor finito.

      I got nothing for you on finito-carbajal. pickum fight to me. to me there's a reason why finito never moved up to fight him....

        i also see Chiquita getting sliced up by crisp combos as he came in...the thing in that fight would have been to see how long Finito could maintain or if he would have succumbed to one of the best pressure fighters in the lower weight classes...i see Finito winning on points in a war

        as for Carbajal, everytime i think of that fantasy matchup, i dunno...Finito was sooooo polished but i see him getting rocked...alot

          That's the 2nd time I have seen you write that BS. You know that's not true at all right?

              as I said, there has to be a reason why he never fought them dudes, its not like finito didn't have tough ass fights like rosendo but nothing like those bigger dudes would have brought....

              I might have to watch some old carbajal tonight now in between games.

                  It's tough to say. My point is Mayweather was considered perhaps the top fighter in the world not named Roy Jones. I would say being the best in the world is considered prime. I do think 130 was Floyd's best weight imo.
