RIP Miguel Canto

Very sad news. Canto was a terrific boxer and one of the very best Flyweights.

RIP Champ

Yucatán greatest boxing legend Miguel Canto dies at 78 - The Yucatan Times

 

Arguably the GOAT flyweight. RIP champ.

 

May he rest as peacefully as everyone did watching his fights

 

Canto UD over Chocolatito

 

In a ballroom dancing competiton?

A 10k?

 

Terry Norris KO1 both.

(if he doesn't get disqualified first)

 

norris beat don king in court for probably 2 or 3 times what canto and gonzalez made in their entire careers combined! #winning

 

I wasn't aware anybody had a winning record against Don. To make it sicker he outlives everyone he fucks over.

 

On a serious note, lets keep this thread respectful. Canto is objectively one of the greatest flyweights of all time.

 

Canto had a far better resume.

 

how many hall of famers have he beat?!

 

Idk if he'd beat Chocolatito, but I'm positive he'd beat Donaire.

 

Would donaire beat Larry shoe ?

 

Miguel Canto's Name is VERY Familiar to REED Without Ever Seeing the Man Fight...Canto Pre-Dates Michael Carbajal, Who Intrigued REED Enough to Watch Boxing BELOW 122-118 for the 1st Time...

REED Vividly Recalls the Name From Nerding Out on RING Magazine Rankings In the Mid to Late 70's...Miguel Canto was a FIXTURE Atop the Flyweight Rankings Back Then...If REED Didn't Know Shit Else About 112, He Knew Miguel Canto RAN that Division...for a WHILE Too!

R.I.P. Miguel Canto...
