    I think they took a crack at us saying hes the 2nd most talented. Benitez aslo beat Duran, and I hear he talked **** about us, so good to hear he lost to two of them.

      Felix Trinidad- record defenses at welter.
      Carlos De Leon- Only cursier to get the world title four times.
      Ruiz/Oquendo- First Spanish heaveyweights in history.
      Gomez-Greatest 122ilber ever.
      Ortiz- Top three lightweight
      Benitez- One of the best defensive fighters ever, all natural, I dont think he trained very much.
      Jose Torres- First Latin Lightheaveyweight champion.

      Great by population percentage, and Latin standards.

      LOL@Ruiz and Oquendo

        I put Tito #1 & Esteban De Jesus at #2. De Jesus was one of the best lightweights, I don't know if you ever seen him but in his prime the guy was pretty awesome.

            At the end, PR is one of the top/best boxers producers by square mile or ppl ratio...period.

              I never had the preledge to, but I plan on buying careers of all the greats. So far I only have Cottos career on DVD, I'am so afraid to even watch them out if fear of it getting damaged like my Gomez/Sanchez/Pintor DVD. I'ma wait till I can copy DVDs. I want all three of his fights with Duran.

                You can "lol" all you want at Ruiz but still he will go down in history as the first Latin HW champ, like it or not.

                  Relax. I don't care what he goes down as, he fights illegally, no matter what his ethnicity.

                    Even Puerto Ricans should be embarrassed by Ruiz. The guy is a joke.

                      Some are, I'am just glad he just broke through, hopefully it will open the door to more Latino heaveyweights, like Oquendo, who was screwed against Bryd, and who has now disappeared.
