Miguel Angel Canto Solis is a former world boxing champion from Mexico.

Contrary to many Mexican boxers, Canto was not a \"slam-bang\" type of boxer (\"Slam-Bang\" is a term that is used to describe boxers whose fights are usually action-packed; Mexican boxers are usually stereotyped as \"slam-bangers\"). He enjoyed using boxing techniques and knowledge instead of trying to score knockouts in most of his fights. Proof of this is that he only won fifteen fights by knockout, out of more than seventy professional bouts. He was a defensive expert somehow in the style of Willie Pep.
