The poll is rigged. Mexicans just came in the thread to vote not to comment. What I posted were facts...Comment

Wilfredo Bazooka Gomez was way better than Chavez who fought 80+ tomato cans. what mexican has beaten Gomez' record?Comment

Fact is PR has welfare and all. Better nutrition, way of growing up, etc.
Mexico doesn't. If Mexico or even Cuba had those benefits that little P4P title would go bye bye.Comment

Sanchez KO'ed/gave Gomez his first loss
Trinidad and De La Hoya are about even
Avelar gave Vasquez his first KO loss
Margo KO'ed Cotto
Duran KO'ed De Jesus (well not everyone considers him Mexican)
Margo KO'ed Cannonball Cintron (I know nobody claims him, but its still in the books lol)
The only Puerto Rican legends who haven't fallen to Mexicans are Benitez and Torres. And I'll give La Porte credit for taking JCC and Sanchez's best shots without falling even though he lost (wasn't a great fighter, but had a f**king amazing chin).
And let's not forget about the Mexican legends like Julio Cesar Chavez. Its hard to say any of those guys could compare to him. And if Sanchez didn't pass so early, I'd say the same for him. I really wanted to see him and Arguello go at it.Last edited by BoxerDood; 05-13-2010, 10:54 AM.Comment

Well, I guess I put that terribly. Joppy was turning it up and was starting to do the things he was good at, starting to make Tito look bad. Then like magic that left hook lands and light out. Gorgeous hook though.
What not illegal? So it is cool to wrap your hands like a cast in NV but not NY? So it is cool to put tape between the layers of tape instead of gauze like your suppose to? I find that hard to believe my friend. It is illegal and he knew it was illegal, why do you think he didn't want to pull his hand out of the glove against B-Hop. It is illegal plain and simple, the wraps are for protecting your hands not hurting the other fighter, Tito's were not to protect hands but to hurt the other fighter.
Every fighter has been known to do illegal things it is how it goes. Tito and B-hop both had punches wander south. Cotto does the same. Holyfield was known for head butts. Pryor and the mysterious black bottle. It happens.
