Is Sanchez A FW GOAT Contender

[Mr Mitts]

Not a lot of fights, but some great wins. Was it enough?

[IronDanHamza]

Nope.

[Mr Mitts]

Nope.

Is he an ATG at least?

Yeah, he’s an ATG.

Top 10 somewhere at Featherweight off the top of my head.

[Mr Mitts]

Are Lopez or Nelson ATGs or just greats? Sanchez always defended his title against topnotch records. Gotta like that.

He is top ten, thats it .A win over Pedroza would have cemented him higher,but it never happened.

That close one with Cowdell was an eye opener.Sanchez gets a bit more than most because of his untimely death,it's the James Dean,Marilyn Monroe syndrome,imo.

So Pedroza is the guy you think could have turned the big trick for his legacy. I was going to ask that. Abashedly, I am totally ignorant of him. I have to assume a weight jump to beat Arguello would have done it for Sal too, but was probably much harder to make.

Sal a lot faster than the thin man everywhere. I would give him excellent chances.

Pedroza took his title around the world , Sanchez never did. Its a 50/50 fight imo.

Yes Alexis had slow feet and quick boxers were hard work for him.

They have Pacquiao kind of low, don't they? I figured he would be a contender for FW divisional GOAT with a lot of folk.
