    Lopez for sure. He had the kind of masterful offense necessary to beat a boxer like Calderon. Plus, he'd have a sizable height advantage which would allow him to control Calderon.

    I agree. Even though Calderon is the best pure boxer out of Puerto Rico right now, he dosent have the power to keep Lopez off of him. Calderon does have the talent to beat Lopez but his limited gifts in size and power play a very heavy role here.

    I don't think he beats him with "talent" either.

    What Finito was most vulnerable too was a fighter who came forward, was stronger than him with a great chin and good technical skill (not just a wild brawler) and simply overwhelmed him....

    A pure boxer or a defensive counterpuncher?

    Gets picked apart almost every time.

    Even if Calderon was bigger and had more pop, I think Finito takes him and clearly.

    Lopez had LOADS of technical skill.

    Peace.

    Calderon wouldn't even win a round of this fight. He has absolutely no advantages whatsoever.
