    Margarito slhould be on that list and Soto is better than Angulo.. If you wanna but Mex Amer you could put Guerrero,Juarez and Luevano(lets see what happens this week) Saul Alvarez looks good but not proven yet. David Lopez is more proven and pretty dangerous at JM or even Middle.

    Oh yeah and i guess you could add Luis Collazo to the PR list.

    I will come up with a more thourough and top 20 list tommorrow.

    I'd like to include Jorge Arce who has been an exciting, brave, tough boxer throughout his fights.

    I would include Margarito, Collazzo, but they're born in America.

    I forgot to put in Juan Lascanzo from El Paso,Tx he is fading a little but he is still probably in the top 20 Mexican fighters today.

    Margarito is born here but he was raised in Tijuana, hes definitly more Mexican than American. But you should include Collazo, i included Mexican American fighters. Another Mex American i maybe should have included was Mike Alvarado from Colorado who is pretty good but I think hes in Jail:huh

    I forgot about David Lopez,Hugo Cazares,Jorge Arce and Giovanni Segura who should all be on that list. Liberado Andrade too.
