PR vs Mex in Championship Fights: Who won?

[machotime]

This is in response to Mexico vs Puerto Rico Thread initiated by Rogue. This is not a flame thread, just something interesting that I hope will provide some thoughtful comments from the members of this board. I contended with Rogue that I’ve read in a newspaper article that PR had the edge in championship bouts vs Mexicans. We decided to do some research to find if this was true. I have to thank rightuppercut for the list of Mexican Champs, which we used, and we used a list posted by a website, Taino Box, to research the PR Champs. The list is in the next posting. We only used for our analysis the four main organizations, WBC, WBO, IBF, and WBA. The results was 41-38-1-1 in favor of Puerto Rico. I took hours of research so please give credit if used. Comments?

you missed one, Luis Ramon Campas got demolished by Tito for the IBF welterweight title. 4th round TKO.

Rakim,LL Cool J,Kool G Rap,Scarface,Chuck D...I could go on....are all greater than B.I.G. Maybe there should be a state to state Championship deal too. I imagine it would garner some interest.

LL COOL J over BIGGIE, are you f**king delirious?! LL has covered more ground than BIGGIE, but if we're just talking about rhymin' skills LL would get torn apart! Add Chuck D on that list too... That's coming from a huge P.E. fan.

Wilfred Benitez -> Duran, Chavez, De La Hoto, etc..

It's kind of normal. We've had much more champions, but not all of them have been all that good. Whereas PR has had less champions but with better overall quality.

But this fact remains: in the most important, expected, hyped, fight between a Mexican and a Rican, your all-time best against our all-time best, both in their primes, Salvador Sanchez obliteraded Wilfredo Gomez. Now remember it and weep.

What about Trinidad vs DLH? or Trinidad vs Vargas?

MARGARITO > COTTO ON JULY 26TH!!

I think you got that backwards.

Damn it must hurt that a little island has more talent than a whole country. I can't wait to tell right uppercut because we have this argument all the time. PR's forever.

The numbers

Population of Puerto Ricans
3,944,259 (July 2007 est.)
Not even 4 million people


Population of Mexicans
108,700,891 (July 2007 est.)
Close to 109 Million people


That is a huge gap of about 105 Million people. Un ****ing believable.
How can you not give Puerto Rico credit?
