if tito was mexican would he be considered a greater fighter?

[Left Hook Tua]

Yeah that'd be a good analogy if Manny was having a hard time making 140...

135 to 147 = 12 lbs.

147 to 160 = 13 lbs.

seems similar to me.

tito would be second to JCC if he was a mexican born and raised.. But his greatest fights wouldn't be against oscar or vargas though, because they would have been mexican as well

Yes but Manny has JUST made 135. He's just leaving 130. Tito couldn't make 147 that's why he was at 154, and he was proven at 160 against a champ already.

chavez was a national icon.

mexico is larger than puerto rico. puerto rico isn't even a country.

plus there are more mexican-american fans in the u.s. than puerto ricans.

Yes, but he was the last national icon. All the previous Mexican champs were household names but since then, boxing has been overshadowed by soccer. He may have made more money because of the Mexican American fanbase but he wouldnt have been nearly as popular with the mainstream population or revered the way he is in PR.

really? boxing is not as big in mexico as it used to be?

maybe it's because you have so many champs now?

I dunno I heard Tito is suing McDonalds. Don't blame Roy, Tito probably can't make 175 at this point either. Maybe he'll fight Tua, who knows!
