    Such a hard list to choose from as they're all great!

    Careerwise: Like everyone has been saying, JCC

    Personal Favorite: JMM

    Skill wise... I'm leaning towards Sanchez. The little he did makes me think he would have been the very best of he didn't sadly pass away...

    Oscar De La Hoya holds dual US and Mexican citizenship.

    Therefore, Oscar is the greatest Mexican fighter ever. Oscar was better than Chavez.

    Oscar beats everyone mentioned in this thread.

    Juan LaPorte, who fought both, said Sanchez was the best fighter he ever faced.

    You are right, Skins. He's way up there. He's arguably the greatest bantam ever.

    Salvador Sanchez was incredible. A shame he died so young as Chavez vs Sanchez wouldve been epic!

    Very true! I don't meet or see many people knocking on JCC in any sense so it's kind of hard to see how he's under appreciated...
