This guy lands among the top guys in all my books. Rising from poverty, he became the best Filipino boxer of all time by winning the lightweight boxing championship of the world. Armed with the desire to conquer greater heights, he challenged and defeated a much taller and bigger fighter who also happens to be one of the best boxers of all time, Oscar de la Hoya. It was not only a case of a small man beating much bigger guy. It was an epic story of a badly maligned and underestimated fighter outclassing the bigger name to a magnitude so big, that the bigger guy had to call in, “No Mas!”
