Masao Oba...

Post by iamasadlittleboy »

...just how good was he? Died when he was 23 having already beaten some pretty solid competition and although he was dropped in his final 2 bouts I think that had more to do with weight issues than anything. He certainly would have been a champion at 115 had he been around a decade later, but could he have gone to 118?

I think he'd have lost to Olivares there, though he'd have been a contender or Herrera.
