        I'm very confused by the highlighted part. Are you saying that JMM is the best mexican ever? I mean MAB or Erik arent in the hall yet so you cant be referring to them. Wow thats the craziest thing I've seen in a while. If you are talking about MAB and Morales remember that JMM backed out of a Morales fight and MAB had been in alot of wars when the fresher JMM beat him. If you're calling JMM the best mexican ever that's some crazy stuff IMO he needs to beat a prime opponent like Manny or Juan. Damn dude you made a bold statement.
        I meant to clarify morales and barrera, but I'm on the phone so it's hard typing clear thoughts while talking about something completely different. Yeah I think JMM was better than MAB and EM both. People exaggerate how close the scores should have been in the MAB/JMM fight, with or without the knockdown. Barrera may not have been physically prime, but his defense, counters, and jab were golden. You can say the exact same for Marquez. His power, reflexes, and speed were not all there, but he was still very intelligent about how he picked Barrera apart. And say what you will about his fight with Morales not being made, we all know he has had some of the worst management decisions, but it's not like he's ducked anybody. He just sets up bigger fights down the road to get the money he deserves, and then has incidents like Chris John. Keep in mind that Morales has his Zahir Raheems and Barrera has his Junior Jones' as well. I just see JMM being slightly better than the other 2 and I think he'd decision them both in tough tight matches. I don't find that to be a bold statement in the slightest.

            Speig you're confused I never said calling JMM over MAB or Erik was bold I just thought it was nuts that the way you wrote the original post said JMM is better than his fellow HOF mexicans. I think JMM is a good fighter, but better than Sanchez, Chavez, Olivares etc. now that's a bold statement saying he's better than those guys.

                I must be confused, cause I have no idea who the hell this 'Speig' is. Again, I simply meant JMM was better than his fellow superfeatherweight future HOFers. And JMM is very underrated I do feel he should be up there in top 3-5 mexicans of all time, the dude is a complete package at every weight class he hits. Combinations, counters, head movement, legs, he's got it all and he's fighting the highest level of competition (yes old ass casamayor included).

                  That arguement makes more sense but I dont know if I'd put JMM as the #3 best mexican all time. I think you're a bit too high on him, if he finishes his career strong and cleans out the 135 division and somehow beats Manny maybe he's top 5 all time. But again you calling him top 3 right now is another bold statement.
