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.
He was taken from us too soon He was supposed to go on and fight Alexis arguello who is among the top 10 arguable top 5 greatest fighters to come out of Latin America dead or alive Both Sanchez and arguello are probably considered among the top 15-10 greatest to come out of Latin America If Sanchez would have beaten arguello he goes down as the undisputed greatest to come out of mexico no question Imagine if arguelllo would have beaten Sanchez… He probably goes down as the second greatest boxer to come out of Latin America behind Roberto hands of stone Duran…
He was supposed to fight Eusebio Pedroza too who is regarded as the 2nd greatest boxer to come out of Panama behind duran… If Salvador Sanchez were to beat arguello the greatest to come out of Nicaragua and pedroza which would have been an extremely extremely tall task He would have probably went down as the second greatest boxer to come out of Latin America behind Roberto Duran
You Ain't Lying, Salvador Sanchez Was A One Of A Kind Brilliant Boxer And Very Humble Human Being. There Will Never Be Someone Like Him,Not Even Close.R-I-P Brother.
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 🇲🇽
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
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.
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.
@@HaraDuran 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
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.
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 ✌️
Azuma wasn't the fighter then as he would become, but as good as he was Sal at the level he was would of been still to good. Also Sal would of been better with more fights under his belt. Boxers peak roughly between 28 - 32, so Sal had 5 more yrs or more to be his best version 👍
All them champs included Nelson my friend ididn't miss the great Nelson how would that look for me I'm a boxer and a old street fighter x gangbanger of the 70s80s90s yes I threw them hands for 30 year's 78"/2008"no lie
@@Breath-j8x Nelson was in his physical prime. He was like 28. Sanchez was basically still a kid and had just turned 23; not fully developed as a man yet. If they rematched Sanchez would've knocked him out in under 10 rounds. I mean just imagine a 28 year old Sanchez fighting a 33 year old Nelson... Sanchez woul'dve of merked him.
If he hadn't passed away at such a young age, we wouldn't even be talking about Julio César Chávez as the greatest Mexican boxer of all time, respectfully.
Exactly right mate, l watched it 2 days ago. Gomez had a tremendous career after this loss to Sal, so fffing sad to lose someone so special so young. Maybe we should just be grateful to be able to see a flash of genius 👍
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
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!
He starting boxing at 16 & achieve what he did by 23 is absolutely ridiculous, but Sal did achieve that & more with immortal status since his passing which is well deserved. The what could of been hurts as a boxing fan. I can imagine what his family, friends & Mexico went through, tragedy 🙏❤️🥊
I'm a proud American citizen but I was born in Mexico. I've been a boxing fan since my adolescent years thanks to my dad. We both mourned the loss of Sal Sanchez and I can still remember the news of his tragedy like it was yesterday. Thank you for this video.
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.
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 !!!!
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.
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.
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.
One the greatest boxer ever that never got tired. Because he grew up and trained at a elevation of almost 7000’ is breading oxygen when he came down the mountain
My hero, when i was young, i remember that morning i turned on the tv and they showed a mangled car, as they reported that my hero was dead, Probably the saddest day for mexican sports fans
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.
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.
I’ve watched the best,until I watched Salvador Sanchez then I knew I really seen the best,we lost the best that ever stepped into the ring,RIP Salvador 👍💪👊🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
