10 greatest mexican fighters of all time?

I like Israel, but Barrera and Morales light him up at 122lbs and 126lbs.

 

I agree but it wouldnt be easy:nono Be some great wars:bbb:yep

 

1.oscar de la hoya

2-10. who cares

 

Neither of the fights were that bad of decisions but the final score equaled out 2to 1 Barrera just the wrong decisions, I guess i was extra pissed cause they robbed me too along with Barrera in the first fight:twisted:

 

:huh No 1 what?

 

Barrera wasn't robbed, that's the point here. It was a close fight, people just feel pissed because the underdog didn't get the decision.

 

haha just ****ing about. enjoying the discussion guys

btw: number 1 kind of has to be chavez for me.

my top 4 would be relatively flexible with certain guys pretty much guaranteed a spot

1. Chavez
2-4. Olivares, Sanchez, Lopez

after that guys like zarate, morales, barrera and marquez fight for the next spots

 

I wouldnt say it was a robbery but it was unjust, but hey so was the 2nd they were equally close and both times wrong guy got decision.

a robbery is Delahoya and Trinidad a 6 point difference.

Anything 3 or more can be considered a robbery

 

Addie; I know exactly what you mean.

BTW, Vasquez is not on the level of Barrera/Morales/

And Wilfredo Gomez would beat those two :deal

 

If i included Mex- Americans on the list id have him around 3 or maybe 4 kind of hard to seperate him and Lopez for me but id have him slightly edging out Olivares. If you could put half Mexicans Duran would replace Chavez at 1. Manuel Ortiz thats a hard one hed be anywhere between Oscar and Zarate 3-7

 

Everyone always wants to talk like Gomez would beat up on Barrera or Morales, id actually call those a 50/50 fight or 52/48 Gomez. Yes even at 122, and at 126 i like Barrera and Morales for sure.

 

The definition of a robbery to me is pretty simple. When a fighter gets the decision despite there being no conceivable way at all that you could have scored the fight for them. Funeka/Guzman is a prime example, the worst robbery I've ever seen watching it as it happened.

 

yey worst decision last year. I also thought Froch and Dirrell was pretty bad.

 

oh good call on ortiz, feel like an ass missing him. obviously top 10 but have to say not sure where i'd place him. likely just outside top 5

yeah for the purposes of the list i didn't include mex-americans but that certainly opens things up

olivares' 1967-68 run is one of the best of modern times for me. 23 fights, all wins with 19 KOs. some of the opposition was less than stellar but when he was on top he was one of the best bangers of all time and could box like a mother when he had to. just didn't have to much

based on his 3 or so prime years, i'd put him above oscar personally

 

At 126 I';d favour them both over Gomez
