    Miguel Canto is the man you are looking for. The slickest boxer we have ever had, and one of the best defesnsive fighters in the history of the sport. :good

    As for recent times, Miguel Vazquez is pretty slick.

    Canto was so ****ing slick. I remember an old ring magazine report from way back in the day describing him as equally brilliant as Pep but with marginally less pop in his punches.

    DLH wasn't slick. He had a very textbook style. While I'm aware of the careers of the others, I haven't seen many of their fights. I don't think Sanchez was slick either was he?

    They didn't call him the "Mexican Willie Pep" for nothing.
