Puerto Rico vs. Mexico

[Moonra69]

Wilfredo Gomez was and is considered unbeateable at 122 when he moved up in weight he was not a dominant force, nonetheless, his accomplishments made him one of the greatest in history. I still think that PR has the edge historically VS Mex in championship fights. I am working if the research but if anyone has the numbers come forward.

Wow...this thread has given a lot of great boxing history. Regardless of what you think, its undeniable that these two countries lead the way over other non-US countries with thier contribution to boxing. I'm curious to see what the actual results in championship fights between these two countries was. It might not be the determining factor, but it would provide another measuring stick.

By the way Hopkins did throw the PR flag to the ground and almost got killed in PR. If that had taken place with the Mex flag the reaction would have been the same. I think you can be a great fighter and create controversy without being disrespectful to other people. By the way you would never see a PR fighter being that disrespectful, as a matter of fact that is one of the reasons people in PR are not proud of a guy like el Macho Camacho, because of his arrogance and that is one of the reasons we idolize fighters like Cotto and Tito because they are humble.

Both countries should be proud of the amount of quality fighters that they have produce...

Now stop fighting and help me seed a video that I just uploaded with all of Trinidad's Ko's...

Hey, that would be awesome to see all of Tito's knock outs! Can some one do DLH's? LOL... especially when he knocks down VARGAS!

BTW, i don't want to start a thread on this, but can someone tell me how you can download these videos? What are *******s and seeding? What are the quality of these videos and stuff. Sorry just a little Technology challenged. THANKS IN ADVANCE!

They say W Gomez had a rematch with Sal...??? And it didn't happen cause Sal died!! If I'm not mistaken Sal fought 3 more times after taking apart Gomez. How come he did not get an Immediate rematch??? I think is cause there was NO need for one!! Sal Kill he's @ss in the first one aand it would of been worst in a second bout!!

By the way.... Azumah Nelson beat Wilfredo's @ss too!! Nelson is still around, How come Gomez didn't try to avenge that loss???

Is easy to say that Gomez would have beaten Sal in a rematch...


Saludos...!

You didnt really have to explain it.I think it was obvious enough for people to understand that when u get get your ass handed to u to the point u have drop back down 4 pounds in order to dominate the weight class where as long as Sanchez was around u would not be considered great.
