Exclamation Vote Greatest Mexican-American Boxer

Now that DLH has retired. Who do you think is one of the best Mexican-American Boxers?

Personally I think its Oscar De La Hoya.

Who and Why?

Out of the options in the poll : Oscar gets the #1 spot.

Chacon gets #2, and 3 and 4 is neck and neck between Tapia and Vargas. With the edge probably going to Vargas.

Chacon was a very good fighter, very entertaining but DLH is better than him. I think Tapia is better than him as well from a technical standpoint.

Another candidate is the long-reigning bantamweight champion Manuel Ortiz.

Michael Carbajal, Orlando Canizales, Carlos Palomino and Mando Ramos were also Mexican-American.
