Of noteriaty: Ruben Olivares, Raul Macias, Rodolfo Martinez, Kid Azteca, MAB, Carlos Zarate, Octavio Gomez (all boxers), Actor Mario Moreno Cantinflas (Mexicos Charlie Chaplin), Mistico (Mexicos current most famous wrestler. By the way Mexican wrestling is easily the best in the world), Argueably 2 of Mexicos most popular wrestlers ever El Santo & Huracan Ramirez are from there, Cuahthemoc Blanco & Hugo Sanchez (soccer players)
This is all from one neighborhood/streets... That is pretty amazing.
As for Furkales he loved the party life and that was his big dismay.
He had outstanding wins albeit at regional level but he was well on his way to a world title.
