Winning the 3rd. and final fight makes you Greater than the other, such is Ali-Frazier but in some cases, it doesnt hold true, examples:
Bowe 2-1 over Holyfield- when we talked about All time Great HWs, the real deal easily make the Top 10 lists and Bowe isnt, mainly due to Big daddy's short career, Holyfield had Tyson and Lewis in his resume, and Bowe never fought those two.
Barrera 2-1 over Morales- Marco may have won the battle but el terrible has a "W" over Pacman and "W" over Junior Jones, and Barrera got soundly beaten by both Manny and "Poison", Overall, I give the slight edge to Morales in terms of career achievements.
Tarver 2-1 over Roy Jones- No contest, Jones has a Greater Legacy and will be remembered more than the magic man.
Casamayor 2-1 over Corrales- Joel won their head to head duel but chico is forever linked to one of the greatest prizefights ever vs Castillo I, his bravery in that fight will overshadowed Casamayor's victory over him.
Leonard 2-1 over Duran- I think this is debatable, because their 3rd.fight proved nothing, Duran is 38.
