    Correction

    Sal beat 2 all time greats, one in Gomez who is regarded as the best ever at 122 AND he beat Nelson. Oh yeah, Danny Lopez isn't chop liver.

      The professor was great for his time, not all-time great. A hall of famer for sure, but in the same category of MAB and EM. All three were/are great, they are just not so great as to deserve an "all-time" great status, a la Gomez, Argüello, JCC, Hawk, etc.

      Danny Lopez? Gimme a break.

        I agree that Morales can line up with those great Mexican Legends like Chaves and Sanches.... up to that line only....but beating Pacquiao? I doubt so!

          Nelson not an all-time great?


          Are you kidding?

          Zoom Zoom deserves to be mentioned with other all time great for sure. At least IMO.

                  I know he has a TKO win over Azumah Nelson but would the outcome be the same if Azumah had more fights. He had 12 or 13 fights where as Sanchez had over 40. Either way Sanchez was one hell of a fighter. Damn shame the way he died.

                    You could argue Gomez was not in his prime anymore. When Sal fought him, there was nobody better than Wilfredo, or so they said.

                    It's a matter of opinions, and what do you consider an all-time great. The Professor was great in his own right, and he was up there for a long time. A first ballot hall of famer. But can he be compared to Pep, Saddler, Sanchez? I'm not sure.

People say Sanchez became a legeng by beating Gomez. Can the same be said of Morales if he beats Pacquiao???

                      Any opinions?

                      I don't think so bro.but clearly a step in the right direction.
