10 Greatest Puerto Rican Boxers of All-Time Please support my channel. It can buy me another cup of coffee :) When Miguel Cotto enters the ring at Madison Square Garden on Saturday night to face Sergio Martinez, he will represent a proud Puerto Rican boxing tradition. With a population of about 3.6 million, the tiny island nation is perhaps the greatest pound-for-pound boxing country in history. Puerto Rico has produced top boxing stars in every decade since the 1930s. Carlos Ortiz was the top lightweight champion of the 1960s and Wilfredo Gomez emerged in the late 1970s as one of the great pound-for-pound punchers in the sport's history.
