    Best Mexican is Julio Cesar Chavez Sr.

    Finito Lopez and Salvador Sanchez get honorable mention, but Chavez fought everyone in 3 divisions, and dominated.

    Best Puerto Rican is Wilfredo Gomez.

    I would give honorable mention to Carlos Ortiz and Wilfredo Benitez.

      JCC has to be the best, though I feel like if he lost the fights he should have lost to Taylor and Whitaker then we would see it differently.
      Ortiz has the best resume, I don't think that's arguable.

      Even skill wise he's argubably best.

      An absolutely great fighter, amazing fighter.

        You still haven't answered my question, what win does Chavez have that matches wins over undefeated Wilfredo Gomez and Azumah Nelson?
        You're misreading my tone, man. And, I've addressed the "what win does Chavez have" question. I named them. Go back and read them. Also, I like Azumah Nelson, but i don't think a win over him is some sort of grand arguement.

Seriously, El Grande Campion has more championships, longer reigns, more fights, more wins, more KOs and superior resumes. Sanchez gets romanticised cos he died early and Lopez is the hipster choice, where guys are like "ya know, I'm gonna name this tiny fighter who only real fans would have watched"...not realising that Lopez is quite well appreciated in this day and age and is no longer the counter/cool choice.
          sanchez win over gomez tops anything that jcc has done... 89-0 right against who? His best win being camacho maybe.

              Javi just proved my point. Your opinion that Mexico has more great fighters is just that, an opinion. PR is much smaller and has more world champions. More is not better.

                R.Mayweather(2), rocklidge, laporte, rosario, camacho, taylor, a robbery vs sweet pea & then lost to randall...

                again... sanchez win over gomez is better than all those wins/and that one draw robbery.

                    Sanchez has the better wins but Chavez has much more quantity.

                    Sanchez probably would have gone on to be greater than Chavez. Very sad that he left us so early because he was a great fighter.
