If thread titles can be edited, it's time to remove the "might" from this thread. :Jest:
I understand the rationale behind thinking Fenech (and others of his style) could win, but I think if Pep was truly so vulnerable to that kind of...
Here's a comprehensive account of the case so far from the NY Times: Boxer Charged in Killing of Pregnant Woman Found in Puerto Rican Lagoon...

There needs to be a round robin tournament between Verdejo, DeJesus, and Valero.
To quote John Wilkes Booth, "I'll take a shot." 1. Benny Leonard 2. Joe Louis 3. Archie Moore 4. Monzon 5. Duran (135) 6. Spinks (175) 7. Hagler...

Ad Wolgast Paul Berlenbach maybe Pinklon Thomas?
Possibly, although I think his post-Olivares struggles resulted mainly from fighting at a higher weight where he was less effective and more...
His wife?
Those links aren't working for me, but here's one of the reports for anyone else who can't read them: "Verdejo & the witness allegedly then drove...
If he wasn't killing her to keep the pregnancy secret from his wife, then WTF was the point?
Yeah, it was strange how Zach Wilson suddenly came out of nowhere to be a #2 draft prospect.
Here's the most updated info I can find from a reliable source (AP): Officials ID body, say it's lover of Puerto Rican boxer SAN JUAN, Puerto...
I think Sal was better as he was a bit more talented/well-rounded, but greater could be more debatable due to Sal's abbreviated career.
Benny was no match for Charlie "The Great Dictator" Chaplin: [MEDIA]
There's footage of him against McLarnin, although that was past his prime. [MEDIA]
I assumed it was Ray, but I think both Leonards were potentially better/greater than Pep.
Who was the real GOAL? (Greatest of all Leonards) I think Ray may have been better because he had more all-around talent, but Benny was possibly...
Last time I saw Arreola at an unusually low weight, he looked physically weak and lacking power.
I'd probably give the edge to Leonard for both. I think he had more all-around talent than Pep (namely, more firepower) and his big wins outside...
You don't have Walker anywhere in the top 15?
That reads like something that's been through Google translate a few times.
Flowers was involved in a number of controversial decisions going either way. He was known to have an unorthodox, Calzaghe-like style of throwing...
I have the same fighters in my top 5 (but in a different order) and Ali, Duran, and Benny at 7-9. I have Mickey Walker at #6 and Pacquiao at 10....
Surprising that Fields fell so far. For months, he was projected to be the #2 QB (and thus #2 overall) pick.
Quite a bit - Tunney, Walker, both Gibbons brothers, Bill Brennan, Tommy Loughran, Mike O'Dowd, and Mike McTigue are all on film, just off the top...
IMO, the top 5 greatest fighters ever are Robi, Greb, Charles, Langford, and Armstrong. I rate Robi and Greb as interchangeable for the top 2...
