Mexico got it real bad in the recent World Cup with a 5-1 spanking from Philippine boxers.
i guess my mexican brothers (and sisters including hecky) would always claim they have the better boxers all around, i guess theyre too many :ugh: so lets narrow down the list to just 5...

I'd say
1. Mijares
2. Barrera
3. Morales
4. Marquez
5. Arce
i agree with your lsit except Montiel, Montiel is a bum, a 40 year old guy with 5 losses was outclaassing him with defense alone.... he was fucking lucky that guy had no chin.....
I don't think Montiel is a bum at all. I don't mean to talk crap, but anyone that calls a professional fighter a bum is messed up, especially the ones who have never boxed themselves. Without knowing your background, I can't comment on you specifically.
Still, Montiel is world title holder and a very skilled boxer. Even the great ones have bad days when the supposed easy opponent gives them all they can handle. "Cochulito" Monitel is still one of my favorites.
here's a simple one:
PACQUIAO > ALL OF MEXICO
and this is debatable, post prime morales gave pacquiao all he could handle 2 fghts even with unstable legs.....
In no particular order:
Juan Manuel Marquez
Rafael Marquez
Israel Vasquez
Cristian Mijares
Marco Antonio Barrera
Others: Humberto Soto, Hugo Cazares (I hope his ass makes weight), Fernando Montiel and Martin Castillo.
These are the best "boxers" from Mexico currently IMO. Brawlers like Margarito and Ponce de Leon are cool, but nowhere near the top of this list. :boxing:

Eventhough this is an old pix,MAB looks old!
Erik Morales
Jorge Arce
MAB
Israel Vasquez
JMM
xcaret, if MAB and EM are past their prime, why do you talk shit about Penalosa who is older than both and still kickin' ass. are you that insecure?
In no particular order:
- Barrera
- Vazquez
- R. Marquez
- JMM
- Juan Diaz
Mijares close behind, ive only seen the Arce fight but that was pretty impressive.
heres my list.
1.) juan m. marquez
2.) antonio "7 mares" margarito
3.) juan diaz
4.) ponce de leon
5.) rafael marquez
6.) israel vazquez
7.) jorge arce
8.) marco a. barrera
i know thats more than five but just to name a few.
i think its the filapinos who hate on mexicans the most thats why they always involve mexicans.
Totally wrong of you to think that. Review other threads involving favorite fighters of Pinoys. You'll see half the list include Mexicans.
It's just some assholes on this site.
Overall, Erik Morales and Marco Antonio Barerra.. Name some Filipino boxers making that kind of money? I'll give you Pacman............. You give me the other.
I don't care though, I'm just saying. It REALLY doesn't matter. Point is.. both races have great fighters. The fact you you all fight over these fighters like they pay YOUR bills, just saddens me.
whats more sad is you are taking most comments seriously.

on the number of mexicans making a living through boxing yes, but not really on the prize range. JMM accepted $30K just to get mugged in indonesia.

last time I checked, De Leon beat Penalosa by throwing a million punches...
Id say the Marquez Brothers, Juan, Barrera, and Vazquez. Mijares is close behind, and Arce out to still be up there. Soto might get quite highly rated if he can take care of Guzman, as well.
you got a nice top 5....
