    That's how I have it. First fight was all Erik. I still can't believe people say Barrera beat him clearly. Barrera had some sick combos that night but Erik was far busier all night. Landing a lot of power punches as well.

    JMM prob lost to an ancient Barrera. JMM has one claim to fame. Knocking out Pac but under super steroids. Not just steroids. Super steroids. JMM is still awesome but under a Barrera and WARALES.

    Damn many people forget how epic the wars pac and morales has been through.

    Morales is the epitome of mexican style boxing.

    Manuel Ortiz is on most of the lists of greatest Mexican fighters, and he's one of the greats of his era, beat all the top bantams in a distinguished championship reign in the golden era, complete, skilled fighter. But checking out the top of his record, I now see he was born in California, died in California, and served in the US army. He's not Mexican, so doesn't get a spot.

    Please don't edit my quote to insert your own names, you turned it into an abysmal list.

    :eye:
    I thought he was Puerto Rican?

    As for Manuel Ortiz, as McGrain also pointed out, its just a case of people not knowing very well who he is.
    Rafael Herrera and Chucho Castillo. Both very underrated.

    Well spotted.

    Both of the Ortiz fighters aren't actually Mexican.
