almost all signature wins belong to mexico.
chava beats gomez,
margarito beats cotto,
chavez sr. beats camacho,
oscar robbed by tito,
ricardo lopez beats alex sanchez,
although considering the size & population of puerto rico, boricuas have nothing to be ashamed of. they more than held their own.
gomez beating pintor & zarate, ivan calderon beating cazares helps, but chava, margarito, & chavez jr. have left wounds that wont ever heal.Comment

I haven't read this entire thread, sorry feel tired from coming back from work, but this is so silly. The number of PR and Mexican champs is almost the same, yet Mexico has like 90-100 million people more.
If you go by capita- Cuba, PR, and Argentina have had many more champs per capita. Puerto Rico has only like 4 million and Mexico well over 100 million.
mexico fans say Chavez beat puerto ricans. How many mexicans did Benitez and Trinidad beat. Juan Maneul Lopez is already doing that. Salvador Sanchez beat Gomez, But Gomez had already murdered like a dozen mexicans. Cotto also murdered like a dozen mexicans until one came in with a plaster of paris.
How many Mexican Heavyweight or Cruiserweight champs have their been?
NONE. Puerto Rico had Carlos Deleon at cruiser and Ruiz at HW. Also Oquendo was going to be HW champ until the judges gave Chris Byrd a gift decision at HW.Comment

Also if you Mexicans want to take DUran and his 50% as one of his own than remember he loss to Esteban Dejesus and got TOTALLY SCHOOLED by Benitez.Comment

Tito, Benitez, Gomez, Vazquez, Ortiz > Morales man.
Even Mexico Olivares, hell maybe even Zaragosa > Morales.
I am not even sure if I can put Morales in the top 5 greatest Mexican fighters of all time.
You keep putting him up there like if he is #3. He really is not.
And, lets not forget Mexico great Kid Azteca.
Morales is an all time great in the top 7 of all time easy. If you don't recognize that you didn't not enjoy a great career. Hell Morales lost to David Diaz in a questionable decision. You see Morales has 4 clear losses on his record, 2 to Pacman when he was weight drained(he had no legs late in the second fight and he was out boxing him comfortably). The third fight to Barrera, and Raheem when he was past his prime.
Sorry but your opinion has been disqualified due to your lack of knowledge.Comment
