For what he did in his short career was amazing and it makes you wonder what he would’ve accomplished if he didn’t pass on. Could’ve gone down as the featherweight goat and maybe moved up a few classes as well.
Indeed the Aztec gods really blessed us with this man of warrior
@@yawontsmokemebicth4922 yeah fr there will never be another quite like him.
@@sappynoodle7276 "never be another quite like him" can apply to a lot of legendary iconic fighters no doubt
The what if goat. Idol had everything to be the greatest. He could fight 30 rounds easily
@@yawontsmokemebicth4922only thing this vato is the exemption to the rule.
I love that a young man like you knows the history of boxing and pays tribute to greats like Sal Sanchez. Much respect brother .

This man woulda been the face of boxing
This is the best boxer ever in the history of the sport
it warms my soul listening to a young person with such knowledge of boxing history, and paying respect to one of the greats, thank you for posting this
The most naturally gifted fighter of all time. The ring general, master of all masters.
At least he showed the world who he was.
He is the greatest featherweight
He was awesome. I was a Danny little red Lopez fan and saw that fight. I was shocked at the outcome but impressed .

@@Dempsey1873pep was alittle overrated
Without doubt.
He fought nobody’s
THANKS FOR REMEMBERING THIS ONE OF A KIND BOXER LEGEND .!!
The best boxer of all times, and my idol forever !! 🥊🇲🇽🥊🇲🇽🥊🇲🇽
But Floyd 🥊Mayweather says he "is the" best. 😂
@@dougfredricks2017Every boxer damn near ever says their the best at one point or another.

Thank you 🙏🏽 from the SÁNCHEZ FAMILA! 🫶🏼🫡
My favorite feather weight boxer. He was awesome, no doubt. Amen! I sure miss him.❤

Roy Jones says the best skill set he had ever seen belonged to Salvador Sanchez
He said best Mexican fighter.

Salvador Sánchez 🥊🇲🇽
my hero Salvador Sanchez gone too soon but in our hearts he'll live forever
His stamina was unreal.. RIP Champ 🕊️
What are u mean was unrreal ???
@@victotfranco1612 in other words " unbelievable ".
@@victotfranco1612stfu and learn how to write correctly
@@victotfranco1612better than his rivals. Like vs asuma Nelson
He never gets tired 15rounds and he look 👀 like he was in the second round
Rest In Paradise, Salvador “Chava” Sánchez!🙏🏼🥊 ☀️
That's correct! Salvador Sánchez was the Master of Master's 🥊🥊
Salvador Sanchez is the greatest Mexican fighter ever and one of the best of all time. He had so many qualities. Salvador has had the best cardio I have ever seen to this day. He'd look the same way between rounds 1 and 15 and without needing to rest one single second in any of those rounds. Had great punching power, awesome footwork, iron chin, head and waist movement, unreal concentration, always threw a variety of different punches, and would never get swollen. Some people have no idea how tiring it is to constantly fight on your toes, but Salvador could do that throughout the entire fight! In his 23 years of age he beat the best African boxer ever and the best Puerto Rican boxer ever, which is still held as the best victory in Mexican boxing. Salvador was regarded as the best pound-for-pound fighter in the world above other solid legends like Ray Leonard, Wilfredo Benitez, Roberto Duran, Marvin Hagler, Larry Holmes, Alexis Arguello, Thomas Hearns. He inspired other guys who became legends and champions like James Toney, Antonio Tarver and Roy Jones jr.
Nope
Mike Tyson liked him too
@@robhamilton4736yup
Style wise, he's a perfection for every Mexican boxers,I wonder what will happen if he fought Marquez,both are counterpunchers that fought in the pocket,and can trade blows while dominating.
@@TheNeorch Marquez is actually my favorite Mexican fighter, but I admit that Sanchez is the best ever from the country. Unfortunately for Marquez his waist movement wasn't the best and sometimes he would leave himself unguarded during encounters, that's why he got dropped a few times. I don't think Sanchez would've knocked him out, but maybe he would've won like a unanimous decision with a couple knockdowns perhaps
Gran Campeon Mexicano
I believe 4 of his opponents who challenged him for the belt ended up becoming Hall of Famers. Willie Pep even stated that he was glad Sal Sanchez wasnt in his era. Una leyenda 🇲🇽
En Paz Descanse Campeón Mexicano Chava Sánchez 🇲🇽
Don't have to say featherweight. SS is the purest fighter I've ever seen. Tyson loves him. Roy Jones loves him. James Toney loves him. Everybody should find out
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for exposing this forgotten Boxer... I admire how young this kid is and how he admires forgotten Boxers... That Sport is so so tough n brutal and for these guys to be forgotten is a shame but thanks to kids like this we can all see what we had in the 1980s... Thanks buddy, much appreciated... :( :) :)
Haha, no one has forgotten Salvador Sanchez. They say he is your favourite boxers favourite boxer. He is a true legend and one of (if not) the best Mexican boxers of all time. It’s so incredible to watch how efficient he is and how he wastes nothing. Plays with range, ducks down and switches effortlessly from offence to defence. Roy Jone Jr and Mike Tyson both say this fighter is the best they’ve ever seen, and he died at the young age of 23. He had everything you could want in a boxer. Power, speed, footwork, defence, stamina. He had it all
Gomez was not just undefeated. He had 32 wins and 32 knockouts at the time.
And gomez went into the match being the heavy favorite
Gotta watch his fights, master counter puncher. We all who love boxing lost so much when he left this world.
R.I.P.
Facts brother. Thank you for this video, he was a legend. He already beat 3 eventual hall of famers before he died. True legend.
So salvador is one of my favorites of all time but little heads up saying shit like this makes you sound like a casual and a dumb one at that. A fighters skill doesn't stay the same their entire career. So in saying he's great cause he beat a FUTURE hall of famer is stupid because they may not have been at the most skillful point of their career or at the the point that earned them hall of fame status. Two of them he beat when they were still sort of developing so it's irrelevant
@@jonapp1199two of the three boxers were 9 time defending champion Little Red Lopez, who had already built hall of fame pedigree by the time Sal beat him, the other was Wilfredo Gomez who beat everyone at Bantamweight, whose undefeated and nearly perfect record at bantamweight was also enough to get him into the hall of fame. Azuhamah Nelson was the only whose hall of fame career would come after losing to Salvador Sanchez. Even at 13-0 against Sal showed how great he would be. So 2/3 is not bad. Many fighters today don’t see 2 well established boxers and hall of fame level careers by the time they fight them. Let alone at 23. It was sort of common but not really in the 80. Just shows that era from bantamweight to middleweight was the best ever for this weight classes.
Fighters from that era weren't getting into the hof as easily as they do now. Tim Bradley? Come on now. Btw, sanchez ko'd those future hall of famers.
Greatest Mexican boxer of all time! Definitely in the elite of international boxers of all time! Most people don’t agree argue that we never got to see him in his “prime”. The fact is that he faced the best in his young age and defeated them by a noticeable margin. Where as Chávez the supposed “greatest Mexican boxer of all time” always struggled against the best, n would win or tie with speculations. Like vs Meldrick Taylor 1 or Pernell Whitaker. Where as Sánchez for example defeated 3 of the greats in his era, Danny Lopez, Wilfredo Gomez and Azuma Nelson. All of them with a great margin. It was as if Sanchez was giving a lesson in boxing. He made them look like students. I grew up watching Chávez fights n thought he was the best, but not till I went back n looked at Salvador Sanchez.
💯💯
I agree with you
I think he was the best fighter in the world. I still remember that damn day of his death. I'm almost sure that God took him to fight with the devil.
Wow....
Who knew someone young like you knows about this great champion! Even I'm young in perspective, he died one year before I was born. Thank you for this!
El mejor de todos los tiempos dios lo tenga en la gloria 🙏🙏🙏
Fue un gran deportista carismático , respetuoso, humilde , disciplinado, gran esgrimista del boxeo , reconocido como un gran campeón guerrero mexicano , q todas sus peleas fueren interesantes con gran espectáculo para todos los aficionados muy admirado EPD.
My cousin✌🏼❤️
No fighter in the world not even today can compare to Salvador Sánchez the great es that ever lived God Bless him he left us early Simply the Best Ever !!!!
Increíble boxeador, una gran perdida para el deporte :c, gran homenaje!
Viva salvador Sánchez la leyenda
El águila invensible 🦅
El mejor de todos los tiempos. Saludos desde mexico.
My favorite Mexican fighter ever!!!! Chava 🇲🇽
THE BEST TO HAVE EVER BOXED
The best Ever period.
MY SAL SÁNCHEZ 😢❤🎉🎉🎉
What takes a career boxer to achieve in his lifetime, this man achieved it by 23!
An incredible fighter an all time great FYI he also was studying to be a doctor so he could be one when he retired
Yes, he didn't need the money because he'd started to make big dollars as a star in boxing. I suspect he just wanted to help his fellow man.
Amazing talent and fighter God bless his family gone way to soon 🙏
This guy's style and ring skill were super rare
Hell ya he been getting more recognition and I love it
WOW! THANK YOU FOR REMEMBERING HIM, MAY HE RIP. I ALWAYS SAID SAL SANCHEZ WAS THE BEST EVER, POUND FOR POUND! 😢
Missed an opportunity to mention he also defeated one of the greatest Boxers in history Azumah Nelson. Great video.
All the greats gave him the stamp of approval
Very unique style of fighting was like no other I've ever seen, an I've been around awhile.
A defensive genius but also an exciting fighter because he backed himself to trade with knockout specialists (Gomez and Lopez) and would taken them apart. Salvador Sanchez is one of the most complete 15 round fighters I've ever watched.
El mejor boxeador de todos los tiempos mexicano SALVADOR SÁNCHEZ 💪💪👍👍👍
Him and Alexis Arguello would’ve been a banging fight.
we need more.boxers. like him. descanse en paz
Sanchez was special. Rest easy Champ!
Antes de los 24 venció a 4 miembros del salón de la fama. El boxeador con mejor cardio de la historia, jamás abrió la boca en ninguna pelea ( a 15 rounds) probablemente el boxeador más técnico de la historia.
The best pound for pound boxer🥊
Unmatched cardio, 15 round and looked like new
Salvadore Sanchez would have been one of the greatest fighters ever, if he had lived. At the time of his death, in my opinion, he was the greatest pound for pound that existed. Salvadore Sanchez's only come around once in a lifetime. I totally respected him. What a loss.
Can’t forget when he fought Ahzuma Nelson. Thats was a great fight.
RIP CHAMPION!!
I Remember him
One of the best mexican warriors on the ring.
👍🏽👍🏽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽
Sanchez would have gone down as the greatest featherweight ever!
One of a kind the best
RIP champion
Everyone talks about Chaves but this guys is the true #1 Mexican fighter of all time
One of the most incredible boxers of all time. Probably the purest true pugilist to ever do it.
Real legend
El.mejor de todos los tiempo
Rip to possibly the greatest
RIP Mr.
Yes He Was unreal!! 20 yr Old & He BEATEN THE BEST OF THE BEST!! to Wilfred Gomez, Azumah Nelson, & 42 wins 2 Year Beaten Everyone 🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆
Salvador Sanchez was a far relative of my dad and everyone knows he was set up. They wanted him to sell himself and lose fights but he didn’t. Salvador Sanchez’s mom is coming out with a book about his life and how his death was set up
When should the book come out?
Info donde puedo esperar el libro?
That's something that I was thinking when I heard (car accident)it's kinda odd because the movie that is called bleed for this is also based on a boxer who had a car accident but survived and boxed once again after the situation
Seen his fights many times. To me the greatest featherweight and lightweight of all time. Glad you posted and remember him.
Azumah Nelson too
That was Sanchez's last fight.
Como el ya no nacen los boxeadores de hoy no tienen ni tantita iniciativa propia de ser grandes por suu esfuerzos es pura mercadotecnia antes ganaba el boxeador más preparado ahora es por dinero que son campeones antes si eran grandes peleadores lo traían en la sangré
I was at his last fight against Azumah Nelson in MSG. He was dead 3 weeks later. My opinion, he was PFP the best ever. And I saw all the greats.
After looking a bit into him, I'm sorta convinced he may have been an inspiration for Toru Rikishi of Ashita no Joe. Both of them were young, featherweight boxers that seemed to have a promising future ahead of them. They dominated their weight class until they eventually met their end due to accidental deaths. Sanchez because of a car accident, and Rikishi because of his fight with Joe Yabuki. But it isn't just their general history, but they also have very similar faces. The sharpest resemblance being in their sharp jawline and the main differences being their hair and noses.
One of the greatest fighters of all time.
I hadn't remembered Danny " Little Red" Lopez in a long time. He was the one to beat in the 70s. And Sanchez did it.
Twice, by ko.
Love it
He was an awesome fighter.
I'm glad to say he's from the town I'm from Sadly how he's life ended one of the best boxers ever lived
THANKS FOR YOUR RESPECT ❤🎉
Wasn't flashy, didn't have that "wow" factor but was SOLID in all aspects of the game! Could box or go to war depending on the circumstances!
Salvador Sanchez also moonlighted as one of the Temptations
I remember him and was so sad when he died in an automobile accident. He was for me the one of the greatest fighters /boxers of all time! He moved so well, had great defense, and just totally overwhelm his opponents no matter how great his opponents were! He was pound for pound the greatest fighter at the time, and unfortunately died way too young, who knows how many more titles he would have won!
Sanchez was amazing!
Rip champ❤😢
He trained in the mountains of Mexico
The best in Mexico ❤ en paz descanse Campeon
UNCANNY MAVERICK MARVEL ABSOLUTELY 💯 I respect 🙏 and love the original afro thunder ⛈️ He was fun to watch. Salvador and Pernell were one of a kind ✨️ ❤️ for me. R.I.P. CHAMPIONS 🏆 🥇 🏆 🥊🥊Boxing my life ⛈️ Peace ✌️
Caballero RIP campeón
Q.E.P.D 🇲🇽
The thing that you had fail to mention about Salvador is that he Actually was Considering a Different Career path then Boxing. And was Looking into Becoming a Medical Doctor he was Amazing and had he lived he would of shined Brightly Regardless which path he choose to take.
What a heartbreaking story Salvador Sanchez is a true legend what fight it would have been to see him and Julio Cesar Chavez go at it would have been a hell of a fight both young and hungry RIP CHAMP ✌️
He accomplished so much in such a short time, and we'll never know how far we would've gotten. His hometown of Santiago Tianguistenco, Estado de México immortalized him with a statue in his honor. Wilfredo Gomez, who he beat attended his funeral to pay his respects. 🇲🇽
He’s your favorite fighters, favorite fighter
Bro use El Canto Del Calibre as background music hits so hard when addressing such a tragic story. Its beautiful yet so sad just like the life of the legend himself. The one who burn the brightest dont always last
No one of if the greatest boxer to ever lace up the gloves
Can't forget the fight with A. Nelson
