Would a Brazilian count as a Latino (I'm sure he does) ?
If so.....Eder Jofre is the second best Latino fighter ever (behind Duran).
Chavez would be third.
Guys like Olivares, Zarate, Monzon, Trinidad, Gomez, etc......go after those three.
As soon as you mention Trinidad, you Mexicans get all defensive, with "Ahh Chavez is better" than you guys try to act like hes all that and a bag of chips, well he is not, most of his biggest wins, he really LOST, and hes like 100 pounds, guess what guys, our greatest fighter is a lightweight, meaning half of boxing could beat him up, Trinidad is better cause he has never quit(Chavez, Duran), won most of his biggest fights(which is all but one)(unlike Chavez. Duran), and he does it at middleweight, if Trinidad beats Winky, Hopkins(or loses), Jeff Lacy, he would be the best, I dont think our greatest fighter should be small.

WHAT ARE YOU ON ABOUT IM ENGLISH.
no way does tito stack up with any of the greats he simply hasnt achieved enough, what exactly? beating de la hoya in a disputed deicsion, then getting his ass handed to him by hopkins, hell if hopkins was mexican he wouldnt go down as the best latino of all time so what the **** you are on about i do not know.

foolish man.
Duran lost at his natural weight to a Puerto Rican ! Than moved up to lose to a Puerto Rican like two more times, and to Lenard, Hearns, Hagler, so how does losing once hurt your place in history? If I'm correct, De La Hoya has moved up 5 weight classes too.
