El Terrible. His will to win, skills and his crowd pleasing style. In his prime he was undroppable.Comment

1.) Erik Morales all the way. First time I saw him in 1998, I was very impressed. Since then, I saw the guy give 101% each time and have been rooting for him (except against Pac)
2.) Rafael Marquez. Small guy but tough as nails. One of the rare few from the lower weight classes that carry a lot of power despite his size. / JMM - technically gifted boxer and impresses me with the way he dissects difficult opponents. Unfortunately, only Pac gave him a real opportunity to shine. The rest were running from him. Greatly undervalued for most of his career.
I would have put Barrera at # 2 but the way he fights when he's losing is just sick. He resorts to very obvious dirty tactics.Comment

I know alot of folks look at the Light Weight and Welter Weight Champs, like Chavez, Morales, Barrera, but not too many folks think much about fly weights like Michael Carbajal. Who could forget that unbelievable first round with "Chiquita" Gonzalez! (Fight of the year "1993") captured the IBF, WBC, WBO Fly Weight Titles. And in 1999, took out Jorge Arce in the 11th round! It would be great to have Carbajal at a catch weight with Barrera, Morales, Paquiao. Michael Carbajal, one of the true great Mexican Champions and inducted into the IBHOF in 2006.Comment
