Rank the top 10 Greatest Latin American Boxers in the Sport's History.

His resume is unbelievable.

He beat Locche too accoding to most.

He's one of the most underrated fighters ever.

The boxing rap from RA the Rugged Man was what originally got me to look up Carlos Ortiz. Think he says: Best Puerto Rican fighter Carlos Ortiz, Runner up Wilfredo Gomez in the early 80’s.

Do you recommend any performances I could watch for Carlos Ortiz against a top opponent or perhaps from other fighters like Arguello?

Not many full fights, a lot of highlights on youtube.

They had Flash Elorde 2 on there.

There's loads for Arguello, basically any of his 130 and 135 run.

Yeah there’s so many factors do you go off their peak performance, longevity, accomplishments, resume etc. So many factors and no definitive answer really.

I’m a massive Sanchez fan, I love that style, one of the reasons I had to include Roman Gonzalez as I believe he has a similar style to Sal.

A hypothetical win over Arguello puts him in very select company, would’ve been a big ask though, don’t have their heights to hand but based off memory, Arguello would’ve been a lot bigger and he was so dangerous too.

I always felt had Sanchez survived he would’ve inevitably fought Chavez around the mid to late 80’s, that would’ve been an absolute mega fight for the Mexicans. I’d confidently pick Sal to win that one- not sure he gets the decision though.

Marquez was a really intelligent fighter, very good at adjusting, had a tremendous will to win too, look at that first Pacquiao fight where he looked completely out of his depth in round 1 but dragged himself back into the fight and very nearly won it. Stylistically speaking though he was far better with aggressive fighters he could counter rather than movers or defence first guys. Ultimately as we know, styles make fights.

Arguello was the best super featherweight champion in history and an incredibly hard hitter. Not sure what the outcome could be, but Sanchez certainly wouldn't be the favorite, that be a big jump over a bigger accomplished fighter is quite a big task. However we never know if he could had stepped up to the occasion like Bam Rodriguez had done so.

Julio Cesar Chavez Sr vs Salvador Sanchez would had been absolutely been a Mega fight, especially when their styles would had stylistic foils for one another, a heavy handed educated in-fighter vs an illusive counter puncher with a nonstop work rate. Both with granite chins.

I think the division they fight is a factor, Sanchez was a quite more complete fighter as a younger age having beaten multiple Hall Of Famers while Chavez Sr was a top fighter at 130 but not at his best due to lack of experience though it be competitive as he beat Martinez, Castillo, Lockridge, Laporte and Mayweather, whereas as the Julio at 135 who beat Rosario and Ramirez would prove quite relentless with his physical prowess plus experience.

I agree on Marquez.
