Maybe but he has been both impressive and not too impressive at times, but i thought his fight with Danny Greene could have gone either way... Magdaleno yey hes Chicano just Huero.. What did you think he was?
what about margarito? the guy that fought pac vs alvarez would be a great fight I think. good list by the way.
Yey it would !! THrow in Angulo,Ortiz an all Mexican wars right there.. Margarito is on there at number 14.
Yeah, you would definitely have to specify 50 guys who all have Mexican heritage to get Arreola, Flores and Chavez Junior on a top pound for pound list. ...You kill me, A.
Probably 70 cause there is probably some other better Mexicans, but im gonna give them the benefit of the doubt.. Ill judge Flores on his razor thin loss to Greene,and Arreolla as a legit top hw contender, Chavez Jr on ?? I dont know probable improvement?:think BUt who can put out a better list? USA? But there are lot of americans on this list too.
ow sorry I missed that, despite being a cheater I still think he is a tough fighter and I hope he can continue fighting.
I think that cheater thing is overblown and exaggerated... Harmless pad not concrete..atsch Even his sparring partners have said he has serous power, and pac said hes never been hit harder.. He would have proved it had he fought Cotto this summer, if he waits till next year though i lean towards Cotto though as he is staying active.. Dont think he cheated been watching him since he was a teen prospect and hes always hit hard and had power, im sure he wasnt packing "Deadly Bricks" back then, would have surely been busted much sooner.
Gracias El CHivito! But I do have him behind Mares... Or do you mean in front? Mares has fought better competition and still undefeated imo a win over still elite Vic Darchinyan and a disputed draw(many though Mares won) with then number 1 bantam Yohnny Perez counts for alot. FOr as good as ORtiz looked , his wins are better than a Berto win. And for the exception of punching power is the better all around fighter as of right now.
My bad ANARCI. atsch Family death my heads not been straight even when Im driving. Sorry for confusing you bro. Yea, you right about Mares. If only he had some power, he'd be seriously homing in on JMMs position. When JMM is gone, you think Mares will be the heir to Mexican supremacy? I think the best of Mares is yet to come. Hes also not as cocky as Ortiz who might get too overconfident in the future.
Again with freakin Orlando Salido! Sorry bro but hes not even close to my top 5 p4p. I still got Montiel over him among others. Solid list but I just dont rate him high.
holy **** dude that's intense. I was thinking it was gonna be all time and I thought that was going overboard with a top 50 list since it's strictly mexicans but of today? haha damn son! props
