    Came across this picture of Fedchenko in Mexico. It's a Box Azteca billboard. Shocked that the trio isn't JMM, Canelo, and Chavez. How do Mexicans see Pac? When I say Mexicans, I mean Mexicans in Mexico.

    good question. all time it only can be one and that is chavez. as for today, barrera retired, morales is on his way of retiring and marquez, well he is a great boxer, but something is missing with him.

    pacquiao or canelo I would say, but you could make a case for pacqiao.

    Maybe because Mexicans love boxing so much they don't care for ethnicity as long as they fight like a Mexican.

    Let me explain you guys, actually is pretty easy to understand, the are two main tv networks Televisa and tv Azteca and each one has exclusivity contracts with some fighters To broadcast their fights (just like HBO and showtime )


    Tv Aztec has Arce, Chavez, Paquiao etc basically all the top rank rooster


    TELEVISA has all the guys from golden boy Canelo, Floyd etc


    When JMM fought Floyd nobody from azteca talked about the fight and when JMM fought Manny nobody from televisa talked about it.


    That's why Canelo vs Chavez is not done, because neither tv network wants to lose its cashcow

    Proof?

    When Marquez fought Fedchenko, he was Top Rank.

    Proof? But if it is something well known is like asking proof that Obama is the president.

    There are some boxers that have changed sides, Montiel used to fight for TVs azteca and now is with televisa.

    That pic was because they had fights coming up or still do.

    Marquez fought Fedchenko before Pacquiao fought Bradley, so there goes your theory.
