Good list, but I'd swap Salvador Sanchez with Wilfredo Gomez. Remember, Sal made Wilfredo quit in his corner, he totally dominated him. I know that Wilfredo went up in weight, but Sal was the better fighter.

I don't know why you bring Arum into this. Is not like he was promoting JCC back then. So that was just irrelevant comment.89-0 is nothing if youre fighting a bum of the month campaign, Arum did it then and he does it these days with some popular fighters. If you have the following Chavez had back then and you could pack the place with a no name, there wasnt a reason to rush him into tough fights. Camacho is a good win for him, thats one.
He also beat Edwin Rosario, Jose Luis Ramirez, Rocky Lodrige, Juan Laporte, Greg Haugen, Roger Mayweather. Meldrick Taylor(yes it is still a TKO win), All good wins at the time.
And, you also underrated JCC skills. He have skills. His defense is underrated, he could roll off punches especially on the inside, offensively he was a machine, body punching one of the best of all times. Combination punching my goodness watch his fight against Ali AMAZING, all this is considered skills. Very skillful fighter.
3 time division champ, the greatest fighter to come out of Mexico, top 5 ATG at 140 IMO.
I really don't know what more you want in a fighter?Comment

Never said he wasnt skilled, he had very good skills, not sure where that came from, Don King promoted him, I used Arum as a name today because he does this, Arum did promote him later in his career though. Never said he wasnt great either, dont know where that came from, I simply said he isnt great than Sweet Pea IMO.I don't know why you bring Arum into this. Is not like he was promoting JCC back then.

yea I don't know what is up with that statement. I consider myself a young guy and I have a top 100 list.Comment

Thats irrelevant as long as you're willing to learn. Its easy to pick on someone else, it takes balls to show a list of your own. Bhopreign doesn't have the balls to show his own list because he knows he'll be laughed off the boards. I'd bet on it!Comment

Exactly!! But it's not only him though. I bet over 90% of the posters on here would make a list but never even saw most of the boxers on the list fight. I'll admit, I won't make a list due to that reason of not seeing some of them old time fighters fight.Comment
