    What weight is Oscar Larios going to fight at now?

    I thought he looked very big and strong at 130 last night, and I think it goes without saying that his claim of being weakend from trying to make 122 was true.

    So what does he do now? I think 130 may be a big big for him (and I mean the opponents being larger and more powerful),

    but I think he could make some noise at Featherweight.

    Fights with Marquez, John, Harrison all could be win-able fights for him.

    Regardless of the loss last night, I think his stock went up and I'm glad to see it. He's always been a good fighter and a classy guy.

    holy ****, I agree with King Bozo....his stock definitely rose with a 12 round performance vs. PacMan, he's a tough MoFo with damn good skills....

    one problem though: 2 straight losses vs. world-class opponents, he needs a tune-up or 2 to get back on the winning track, then he should shoot for one of the belt-holders at 126, I'd make him the favorite vs. most of the top cats at 126....but he might be comfy at 130, so we'll have 2 see

      Isreal was getting the best of him early, but a lot of people talk like Oscar got stretched in that fight when in actuality it was a cut.

      Two losses yes, but nothing to be ashamed of in either case.

              I aggree. I've learned more about him through web and many people really rank him high if not the best bantamweight ever. They say he was a very feared puncher.

              I have some of his fights, I'll upload them if i still have them on my computer.

                I have quite a few of his fights on disk, and one of the things I love about him is that even his losses are hell bent exciting fights.

                His loss to a younger bigger Alexis Arguello was a barn burner.

                Then there's the trilogy with Bobby Chacon.

                Helluva fighter!

                  lets trade fights, hook me up with some bobby chancon v. ruben oliveras

                  You probably have the fights i have of his.... I have one where a young Chavez is a studio guest and through out the fight Chavez and two boxing experts talk about Oliveras boxing career and its funny cause you hear Chavez say "he had how many knocks!" then Chavez ego will speak and say, "yeah well me too i have a lot of kos" just funny stuff, you can tell Chavez didn't follow Oliveras career as he is just blown away by Oliveras accomplishments in the ring, its kind of funny to hear Chavez be in aw of Oliveras like a boxing fan seeing his favorite fighter, funny stuff.
