Salvador Sanchez Referenced In Movie "21"

[The Texican]

Just saw the movie last night, good one BTW. Anyways, no major spoiler here or anything, but the main character at one point uses the alias Salvador Sanchez to keep playing at the casinos. I'm pretty sure this is not coincidence since the movie is mostly shot in Vegas, the site where he fought Wilfredo Gomez and Danny Lopez. Did you know he also stopped Felix Trinidad Sr ?

I noticed that too. They also mentioned the bite fight.

Good call. The writers must have been boxing fans.

Sal was a beast. Could have been the greatest Mexican fighter ever, and Top 20 pound-for-pound material of all time
