Baseball is also very big down there, as you know many great players have come from Mexico, like Fernando Valenzuela, Vinnie Castill, Jorge Cantu, and Adrian Gonzalez. So dont think that just because of Mexico's size we should have even more Champions, Boxing aint all we do in Mexico. Boxing is not as popular as it once was.

BTW, according to the rating over 18 million people watched Canelo and Chavez this weekend in Mexico. That is aprox 30% of population. They do support the sport and are the main reason the sport is still relevant on this side of the world.

Just in Los Mochis alone is 6.5 % of whats compared to the Puerto rican population fool, just so you can understand.

And dont think you guys are the only ones with sports besides boxing. We know you play soccer and in the north you play baseball.
Theres a reason Puerto Rico is ranked higher than Mexico in three different sports (basketball, baseball, volleyball) and its not because the only sport we do is boxing.
Its disheartening to me to go to a place like boxrec and see that the place has recorded 2671 active mexican fighters, while Puerto Rico cant even break the 300 active fighters mark.
Neverthless we do with what we got and before this year ends, we have three more title shots to go, including tomorrows rematch between Palacios and Wlodarzcyk for the cruiseweight WBC belt, which should have been Palacios' a year ago.

jtcs I like you man but you Boricuas need to stop that per capita bullshit. If that were the case you guys still lose to the Virgin Islands. The fact is that both produce great boxers, I think we're better in quality still, keep in mind that before coming to the top of the world stage, Mexicans only fight Mexicans so many of them eliminate eachother's chances to be at the world class level.

But in all reality Beltran I think is the better boxer and was landing the cleaner punches, but Rocky was a beast and was actually backing beltran down and landing a lot. There can't be a more accurate score than what Ledderman had, and when the punches came to the back of the head for the point deduction, well that was just the icing on the cake bro. Rocky outworked Beltran period, bottom line.

Los mochis alone is smaller that the while point. And not only boxers have come out of there. If im not mistaking omar bravo and other famous soccer playes have come out of a single town. Los mochis>pr
