Danny "little red" Lopez was a tough s.o.b. He was the WBC featherweight champ during the '70's. He fought Bobby Chacon, Ruben Olivares, and the great Salvador Sanchez. He was a great fighter.

Rudy Nix(Good LHW from the 1990s) and Joe Hipp (fought Morrison and Seldom and was decent) are the only two that come to mind off the top of my head. So many Mexicans have basically the same bloodline as Native Americans such as De Leon and others. So more than you realize. Yaqui Lopez was a hell of a fighter.

I remember Joe Hipp fighting Tommy Morrison. I think Hipp broke Morrison's jaw early in that fight, but Tommy hung tough and ended up beating Hipp.

I seem to remember Hipp was a tough fighter, but never could get past the top guys.

Duran is part native; Baldomir looks to be but I don't know his story. And I'm sure Barrera isn't pure Spanish.
