        Amongst the Featherweights, who would have beat Salvador within the years of 1981-1985. That's a pretty big timeframe to hold a title.

          Sal Sanchez beat Lopez, Gomez & Nelson before he was 24. He accomplished more in his few years of boxing than many of the so called greats running the sport now do in their entire career.

              Both great fighters but my vote goes to the legend that is Salvador Sanchez at 23 he had everything

                Chavez is the greatest Mexican fighter ever.

                You can argue that Sanchez was BETTER at his peak but he's not the greater fighter historically.

                Ruben Olivares should be mentioned, he's definitely up there among the greatest Mexican fighters ever.

                  Salvador Sanchez. If he hadnt died so soon he would be a top 10 ATG lock. JCC is overrated. I put Morales ahead of him.

                      Sanchez would have been better than Chavez, in my opinion. Didn't happen for obvious reasons. So, Chavez gets the vote. Regardless, as it stands/stood, Lopez beats both, p4p.

                      LOPEZ, ftw.
                      I agree with Lopez. I have seen some footage of him. he was very good. But Salvador is still no.1 for me.

                      1. Sanchez
                      2. Lopez
                      3. Morales
