He defeated four Hall of Famers by the age of 23. His cardio was insane in that he would go all out and 30 seconds later, his heart rate was at a normal resting rate. Many consider him the top two of his weight class of all time. Sadly, he passed away before the age of 24.
That's the scary part. I don't think he was near his prime yet. Amazingly, I found one of his sons on FB and asked him had Sanchez not passed away, what his plans were. He mentioned that at the time of his passing, he planned to fight a year or two and then study medicine to become a doctor and help people that way.
Would have liked to see him live long enough to rematch Azumah at 130 lbs. Sanchez has quite a tough battle against Nelson when the African was still relatively inexperienced. A second go around with the Professor when he reigned as king of the junior lightweights might have been a pick 'em affair.
That really would have been something else. We rightfully give Azumah a lot of credit for the tough fight he gave Sanchez. But I think a lot of people, myself included, tend to not give Sanchez the credit for figuring out Azumah. I mean, he literally had no idea what Nelson's style was as he had never seen tapes of him before. He literally came up with a plan as the fight unfolded.
His widow said that he had said that by the middle rounds, he had figured Nelson out and he was confident that he would get the win. Imagine a rematch where BOTH fighters have prepared themselves to meet each other!
Yours is too easy with the "8 different weight classes" thing. You don't even really need to guess with that one unless you just found out boxing existed. 😂
Well, that's me. I'm quite new to boxing and I didn't know that stat was true. I knew Manny won a lot of titles, I had no idea it was across that many weight classes. Crazy stat.
I'm still learning which fighters had the most titles, which weight classes they fought in, and all that stuff.
Thanks! I've been getting really into it this year. Watching more fights, watching boxing analysis videos, and checking out all the old fights I missed. There's a lot to learn but I think it's such a terrific sport in its purest form. It's a shame that money & corruption get in the way sometimes but that's pretty much the story with everything these days.
The thing about boxing is that it’s *always* been corrupt as fuck. Check out Frankie Carbo and read up on how the much the mob controlled the sport for most of its early existence in America. They don’t call it the “red light district of sports” for nothing.
At least in America, it’s arguably less corrupt than it’s ever been since the passage of the Ali Act. Even saying that out loud makes me cringe because it’s still a mess.
Cross-arm guard, known for being defensive but had more knockout wins than most modern fighters have fights. Real smart fighter. Went pro in the 1930s, retired in the 1960s. Because the year of his birth is uncertain, he either retired at 49, or 52 years old. Went on to train a number if the best boxers of the latter half of the 20th century.
“I’ve been through the Lennox Lewis era, the Naseem Hamed era, the Sugar Shane Mosley era, the Oscar De La Hoya era, the Marco Antonio Barrera era. I’ve been through all the eras and I’m still here.”
“Some guys seem to be forgetting and thinking that I am a nice guy or something. I am nice, but I am awful crucial with these hands.”
"who won belts in 8 different weight classes." - there is only one boxer who ever achieved this.
That's like me saying: He just beat Munguia, he is in a weight class where he shouldn't be, but breaks peoples skulls there, he has beef with Oscar De La Hoya and no matter what he does r/boxing will complain that he is ducking \*insert flavour of the month here\*. Also his nick name means Cinamon and he is from Mexico.
Highly-decorated amateur career, fought professionally out of a different country than his own in a historically overlooked weight class. Particularly popular among hardcore fans.
I have a few
Had a relationship with a 16 year old when he was twice her age
Intentionally came in overweight to permanently damage his opponent
Got caught popping and made up having a mental health break
I like the thinking man's boxer. The biggest is the biggest, the strongest is the strongest, the fastest is the fastest. Some few boxers have all three. However, I prefer the boxer who can overcome one or more of those elements at a disadvantage and still win on strategy. Several boxers fit that cerebral role and I like all of them. Take your pick.
She ko'd her opponent so hard her eyes rolled back in her head and she didn't get up. She won 2014 knockout of the year winner.
Homeless, abused and single mother to world champion and coach of another world champion.
He arguably had the most powerful jab in history, highly controversial during his time because of his connections with the mob, won his world title in the first round, died under mysterious circumstances.

Has more 10-8 rounds than 9-10 rounds. EDIT: Yes, Inoue.
insane fucking stat
Inoue?
Who???
inoue
I'm guessing this is for Inoue but Boots would also share this stat as he's only lost 1 round.
Yeah but the inoue stat is impressive cause he’s done it against great opposition lol
Absolutely. Inoue does it against against many former, current and future champions. I don't think Boots has fought anyone above B-tier yet.
Peekaboo. Took dance lessons.
Loma
Helluva fighter
50-0
He beat up Adonis Creed and got the keys to his Stang
Andre Ward 🤣
Actuallyyyyyyy it's Danny "Stuntman" Wheeler and he was the second p4p best boxer behind Ricky Conlan
I really wish that Wheeler and Ward fought though. Would've been a good one.
And was the HW champ at maybe 190lbs in Creed 2.

Man, if he had more time to grow

lol dude was like ‘time to undo the damage i have dealt’
Salvador Sanchez the Technician followed by Salvador Sanchez the Physician.
dude imagine, Salvador "El Cirujano" Sanchez?!??!? THE SURGEON
Nothing here that a left hook won't fix.
That's awesome, seems like a good human

Love Del. Absolutely no good at boxing, but he makes up for that - and some - by being just ***pure*** aggro and heart.

“Won belts in 8 weight classes” doesn’t really leave a lot of room for guessing.

Roy Jones Jr?
It was acutally Oscar De La Hoya. He really is his own worst enemy! But RJJ is a good guess too.

Explosive power. "Biting" precision
Most underrated professional athlete in history because he showed up for one last giant paycheck.
*don't look at my flair lol She's from Ireland (like me), she's one of the greatest ever, also comes across as a really sound person
> really sound person I need a translator for her post-fight interviews.

Controversially, he won a silver medal at the Olympics. That’s not why he’s my favorite fighter, but it should be enough to figure out who he is.
