Who are the great Mexican fighters left/to look forward in future?

[Nawfal]

A few years ago you had the likes of:

Barerra
Morales
(ODLH)

These two are virtually done. And i know you still have marquez bros, but they are getting old now as well

is it all about:

Chavez Jr
Juan Diaz
Christian Mijares
chris areola (?)

Who else are mexican fighters to look out for?

[boxbox]

mijares
soto
marquez (still has along way to go imo, both of em)
ponce de leon ????

[Nawfal]

I understand marquez bros are not that old, but they have been around for ages now, i wonder if their time will come soon.

jesus i thought soto was an old man, hes a very good pick.

i think soto and mijares will end up being excellent fighters

i dont think ponce de leon will amount to much. hes too 1 dimensional and will get outboxed by anyone good.

[Boxfan1]

Hatton

[Nawfal]

yeah theyll probably adobt pacman

[myk]

Soto
Baby Bull
Chavez jr
Ulises Solis
Mijares
R. Marquez
Ponce De Leon

[Nawfal]

yeah i like mexican fighters and just want to know who to look out for. it does seem like a lot of their superstars are on their way out.

Diaz and Arreola are Americans, although their parents were Mexican; still, they don't count as Mexican any more than ODLH in my book. I doubt Arreola becomes that big anyway.

Until last week, Baby Face Garcia would have been near the top of the list, but he looked like he just wants to quit boxing.

Jhonny Gonzalez is one I like better than most of the other guys already listed.

He's a few years away from making a name, but there are huge hopes for Vicente Escobedo, who sparked a bidding war between promotion companies before his first fight, although he too is American-born.

[David UK]

Sir Ricky Hatton(soon to be)

[Nawfal]

Why can't people just recognize great fighters, and not focus so much on where they are from? If somebody else from AZ. does something exceptional, unless I helped, what the fuck does it have to do with me? Evolve already.

jesus some people are sensitive to these matters

i was just asking because it tends to draw more fans. and i like the typical style a mexican fights with. come forward, good body attacker, and willing to get hit.

if any other fighter fights like that then im a fan as well.

Jhonny Gonzalez

Erik Morales :yikes:yikes:yikes

Jose Luis Castillo :yikes:yikes:yikes


-------------------------

And also check out the Mexican team for the Beijing Olympics in 2008.

I think the best is the Middleweight (but he will be fighting in Super Middlweight) in the Pro's, 6'2 Marco Antonio Periban, that beat the Cuban number 1, to get to the Panamerican Games in Rio this summer.

There are others with good chances for a medal like Carlos Cuadras, Odilon Zaleta and Braulio Avila

[WestSideBoxer]

I think Juan Diaz...he the best in the bunch.

The best right now is Rafael Marquez

Margarito could be too, if he beats Williams

I say Mijares, Chavez Jr, and Juan Diaz are set to become the next great Mexican fighters. I would have said Julio Cesar Garcia, but when you lose to Troy Browning and look like Oliver McCall minus the tears in doing so, I can't put you in the upcoming best.

[Ramshall1]

Julio Diaz deserves a mention.

[Nawfal]

DLH is not Mexican.

Thanks.

i did put him in brackets

[Relentless]

damn i forgot margarito is only 29.

soto looks pretty good, i will be rooting for him against pacquaio.

[Cruiser1]

I like the way Juan Diaz's career is going and we'll have to wait and see what becomes of JCC Jr. I think he's got the goods.

[hellblazer]

Abner Mares
Christian Mijares

[El Bombasto]

There are a lot of decent Mexican fighters left, but none of them seem to have the potential to fill MAB's, Morales's shoes

[VX.Nefarious]

Fernando Montiel
Hunberto Soto
Giovanni Segura

[Zopilote]

Fernando Montiel
Hunberto Soto
Giovanni Segura


Add Abner Mares and Saul Alvares to that list. And maybe further in the future Alonso Lopez.

i guess the list needed to be revised since none of the fighters in the original list are heading towards any type of greatness

:hat

[Kush]

abner mares
montiel
alvarez
segura
too many to list

[saul_ir34]

My cousin Arturo Rodriguez. Look out for him. He is 17 but has won a bunch of amateur titles.

His mom wont let him go pro yet. He has to finish school first.
I believe he fights around Middle to super middle.

His dad is a street fighting legend back home and he was one hell of a street fighter but they made him turn to boxing to keep him out of trouble.
