P4P, how would the greatest Thai boxers fare w/ the greatest Mexican boxersofalltime?

[Deejay]

Mexican fighters would be better hands down, but a major reason for this is that boxing is a distant 2nd in comparison to Muay Thai...every little boy wants to grow up and be a Muay Thai champion, not boxing champion. It's like saying who would be better in Rugby Union...Australia or Brazil? Australia are of course...because Brazil couldn't care less about Rugby Union, when they're soccer mad!!

OK, we knew already what happened to Saman Sorjaturong vs. Finito Lopez, but how about this...what if?

Yodsanan 3K Battery Nanthachai vs. Erik Morales

prime Veeraphol Sahaprom (he's still a champ but already aged) vs. Rafael Marquez

Pongsaklek Wonjongkham vs. any top Mexican flyweights

Eagle Akakura vs. Jorge Arce

too bad no of them will fight outside of Asia

And let me guess y'all are of Mexican or Latin descent... Okay that maybe the truth, but are you guys even familiar with the top thai fighters of today and yester-years, cause from the limited amount of clips and fights that I've seen with great Thai boxers they look pretty f**kin' awesome I mean their boxing ability and power arei feel right up their with the best of 'em, it's frustrating that politics get in the way of seeing the best of the best in the world and not just concentrated w/ Mexican-Americans U.S. fighters, and Native mexicans. I mean if you think about it back then and maybe just a few years back we would've never seen Pac expose supposedly top mexican featherweights only to find out that they are just as much a bum as Pacqauio is. I mean since you guys are sold on Mexicans just being way better than their Asian counterpart, would you also agree that if you put up the Greatest Mexicans of All-time against the greatest African-Americans of all-time that the Mexicans wouldn't have a chance in hell I mean Pernell Whitaker alone will make every single Mexican look very average, **** he did it against Chavez and young quicker De La Hoya looked lost against an over the hill "Sweet Pea".

Pac ate every thai that was fed to him (besides Singsurat), Sasakul included. So who the hell is exposed, the mexican fighters or thais?

Anyweyz mexican champs always campaigned with universal and top opposition. You can't really know till you pit them together.

yeah, too bad...except for Yodsanan 3K he's chasing El Terrible i heard.

By "chasing" do you mean getting one win over a second rate Steve Forbes and only have 1 fight outside of Asia?

[rsl]

What kind of ****** **** is this?

I have news for you. Pernell Whittiker made EVERYONE look average thats why he is an all time great.

First of all Pac aint even Thai and not only that he's had one good fights against a Mexican.

Saman Sorjaturong one of the greatest Thai fighters off all time was DESTROYED by Ricardo Lopez in 2 rounds.

Most Thai fighters flat out refuse to fight outside of Thailand like Verapol Shaprom.

The only country that out does Mexico when it comes to boxing and boxing history is The USA.

First of Pepe, or Poncho, or I mean Jose you proved my point exactly it only took one African-American to make 2 of who many are considered top mexican fighters of all time in Chavez and De La Hoya look silly., and I haven't even thrown in the names Ali, Tyson, Roy Jones Jr., Sugar Ray Leonard, Marvin Hagler, Sugar Ray Robinson, Floyd Mayweather Jr., ..... Remember I'm comparing these fighters in a P4P basis. Can you honestly say that the top mexican fighters of all-time beat any of the fighters I just mentioned. So to be honest with you and you might be surprised by this but my favorite fighters are dominated by latinos, however I just don't see how a Mexican fighter can even crack the top 20 of all-time when you know as well as I do that none of the mexican greats can beat the top 20 African-American fighters of all-time.

this guy cannot be serious.

I have already said The only country that could beat out Mexico and Mexico's history in this sport was the USA and last time I checked Whitiker, Robinson and all the others you mentioned where from The USA.

Like I already told you Pernell Whittiker made everyone no matter what country they were from look ordinary because he is an all time great and one of the two best defensive fighters of all time. If your judging on weather or not a fighters or fighters from a certyian country are good by how that fighter did against Pernell Whittiker then you are only going to make yourself look ******, but then again you seem to like that.

You are not comparing Mexicans to fighters from the USA. Your question was comparing fighters from Mexico to fighters from Thailand.

The USA does produce better fighters than Mexico and that would have been the 3rd time I have said that in this thread.

When you want to compare fighters from Mexico and fighters from Thailand there is no comparision and anyone who tells you different is either A) Thai or B) has no ****ing clue what they are talking about.

Or maybe the promoters will not allow their little mexican ****** to get exposed, because they obviously will make alot more money having over-hyped mexicans. I mean its simple, it costs more money to bring up the Asian fighters over here and his entourage, than having someone walk to the f**king border, and there's just helluva lot more latinos than asians in this country so who would you want to make your money with? Demographics, vato, DEMOGRAPHICS, intiendes?

no, not yet, he's still unknown to the average boxing fan in the US. 3K hooked up with a US-based promoter (the name escapes me now) in a bid to give meaningful fights and exposure. he didn't get Freitas, Barrios and Campbell to fight him in Thailand, so he's flying over instead.
