    Can't believe people think Chavez is greater than Sanchez.
    Sanchez is one of the most skilled fighters of all time.
    **** JCC.

    Come on man, that's like saying..

    "Can't believe people think Ray Robinson is greater than Henry Armstrong.

    F*** SRR. "

    You see how silly that sounds, Both are very technically skilled, and top ATGs.

    I've never actually made a true top 10 list for Mexico, but if I did and went beyond that, Castillo would probably be at the tail end of a top 25, maybe a tad higher or lower. Don't know, there have been so many excellent fighters throughout history who came out of Mexico.

    As far as Calderon goes, no. I don't think that highly of him and I hate watching Segura. I think he's right up there with Vitali as far as ugly styles go today.

    JCC is one of the most skilled pressure fighters ever. I think that I'd probably consider him a better overall fighter at his best than Sanchez.

    Probably, but pressure fighters aren't that skilled...

    My bad. Should have been "definitely, but pressure fighters aren't that skilled so it doesn't say much about Chavez."
