    Peculiar angle to take

    Id pick Lopez over garcia at 140. Not that it would matter as thurman didn't defeat him at that weight. Garcia beat no one worth a damn at 147

    And to the other shit bird, Alvarez didn't even fight baldomir at 147

    Marion "Jackhammer" Wilson. That was the same card that Tommy Morrison fought to a draw against Ross Puritty. I remember it was televised.

    Well I put weight into Teo having medical issues that night. Very good win over Loma though. Taylor and Prograis got really overrated. Both guys were just not that good at all yet people bought into them as very good because they fought for the lineal title in a shitty 140 pound division at the time. Kambosos is an ordinary fighter. He struggled with Lee Selby and was fortunate to get that decision. I think Teos level is still an open question. He certainly doesn't appear that good vs good movers.

    I'd still say that prime Keith was a better fighter than Teo.

    Yes, it's true that Teo has the Loma win, but history will probably look back and say that Loma blew that fight more than anything by taking so long to get started.
