Who is the greatest boxer to ever come out of Mexico?

Let me clarify I mean the greatest technician to ever lace them up, so IMO Chavez doesn't qualify, two of the names that instantly pop into my head are Finito Lopez and JMM, who is your pick for the greatest technical fighter to come out of Mexico?

Salvador Sanchez comes to mind, but we'll never know how great he could have been since his life was cut short by a car accident. He was one of the best Mexican fighters ever, that's for sure.

I have to go with Sanchez. He was the master of the featherweights and was only getting better.

People often mention Sanchez as the greatest Mexican but as much as he accomplished in a short period of time, to pick him as the greatest is a disrespect to the other Mexican fighters who put in work for years and years.. longevity..

He beat LIttle red lopez, big deal, and he beat a former 122lbs guy in GOmez and also Nelson who was green at the time..

Compare that to someone like Chavez who put in consistent work for long years and Ricardo Lopez who went undefeated regardless of the level of competition..

Chavez, Finito, Marquez and Morales are above Sanchez.. Sanchez is on that Ruben Olivares level...

Maybe not the best, because his career was cut short, but Sanchez was certainly on his way to becoming the best.

How about Pipino Cuevas in the list? Sure, he had some defeats in his record but he could pack a punch. Not THE BEST but oh well.
