    I have most of his fights. Mayol is a very hard puncher.
    Kyowa has the better belts...Calderon has WBO.... high risk low reward.

      I'm dieing for Calderon to step up already. Hopefully with both Calderon and Mayol they can unify the belts, so people would give a damn about that divsion.

        i can say he's almost a complete fighter..

        he's got power on both hands and has good defense..

        i think he's better than boom boom..

        IMHO, he's the nxt big thing in Phil. boxing aside from manny of course..

          from what i have heard, calderon isn't as top as it would appear to us american fans. some people i talk to from asian countries say that they don't even have calderon in their top 5 at his weight. mayol I knew would blow away his opponent. that eagle guy is good too, he's probably the best. him and calderon would be a really good fight.

            Asians don't have Calderón in the top 5. Well, what's the surprise? It looks like racial bias to me. Ivan is one of the most skilled fighters in the sport today.

              Some Americans dont have him in the top five .
              Reason which as a Puerto Rican, he holds the WBO, and not he IBF.
              WBO = hand me downs to us. Benitez was known as the "WBC" kid...

                To me, I don't care about the belt. Calderón has incredible skills and once he gets into unification fights, he'll prove he is the best. It's not that I am biased because of nationality, it's just that Calderón has skills that can rank up there with those of Floyd. Ivan just needs the chance to prove what he has.

                  yeah but asians have seen calderon fight, but usa people haven't seen those others fight. heck, all we've seen fight from that whole division is calderon and whoever he is beating up. so people will be in a big surprise if calderon fights one of those guys and loses.

                    I know, I bite my tongue for awhile until I seen your racail post, cause I've been scanning through records, and I've noticed PR's stuck with the ABC belts, almost all the time. Looking at Calderon, you'd think he'd be good enough for the IBF.

                      I was impressed with eagle kyowa or whatever. he's for real i think. i missed the rodel fight because i don't have tv azteca. what idiot promoter put a fight on a channel with only 12 viewers?
