The Eternal Rivalry: Who has more champions in boxing history? MX vs PR

[LoadedWraps]

As latinos we stay united, PODER LATINO!

Except...when it comes to the eternal boxing rivalry....Mexico vs PR!

Who has/had more champs, past, and present!?

GO!

[SlySlickSmooth]

Pretty sure Mexico has more champions than any country.

I mean, how many different men became champions under Lightweight for Mexico in the last decade? Probably at least 25.

[Sugar Adam Ali]

Mexico has Salvador Sanchez and julio ceaser chavez... Plus morales barrera and marquez

Trumps anything Rico can bring to the table

[Zaroku]

As a Mexican let's be fair. Puerto Rico, P4P is holding their own. Pocos pero picosos!

But Mexicans & Mexican Americans have more champions than other countries.

But once the world becomes more integrated, this will change. There are warriors all over the world, once they have access to mainstream media in America, then we might start to know, what we don't know!!!

We don't know, what we don't know. We should try to know!

[.!WAR MIKEY!.]

I never really look at the quantity of things when we looking for the best, I look at quality and Mexico has had the more quality champions.

Morales
Barrera
Sanchez
Chavez
Marquez

just those 5 names alone top anything Puerto Rico has ever done in this sport.

PR had Tito and Cotto.

[BigAlexSand]

Mexico is the obvious answer. PR has had a couple greats but what Mexico has produced trumps damn near every other country!

[BigAlexSand]

PR had Tito and Cotto.

Lol... Your too funny!

Not sure about that.......
Here are some facts:
Per Capita PR has the most champs ever in the entire world.
John Ruiz is the only latin american that has held a heavyweight title, he is Rican
Wilfredo Benitez is the youngest ever to win a championship belt he was 17
Wilfredo Gomez Made 17 defenses of the WBC Junior Featherweight title, all by knockout, establishing a world record for most consecutive title defenses won by knockout.
Tito Trinidad holds the record for welterweight title defenses (15) Never lost to a Mexican!
The list of quality records goes on......
