Both are hall of famers for sure, Can't really tell them apart. Erik's resume consists of being a former four-time world champion at WBC and WBO Super Bantamweight (122 lb), WBC Featherweight (126 lb), WBC Super Featherweight and the IBF Junior Lightweight (130 lb) divisions. Morales also defeated fifteen different world champions during the course of his career and he's ranks #49 on ESPN's 50 Greatest Boxers Of All Time, a step ahead of Mike Tyson.

While Floyd's resume consists of winning six world boxing championships in five different weight classes. Not to mention his the 2nd pound for pound fighter of our era.

I say about even.

Prime Barrera and prime Pacquiao are better wins than anything on Floyd's resume.

Ultimately, it comes down to how much importance you place on losses. Morales has the better wins IMO, but then again Floyd has some very good wins himself and zero defeats.

floyds a different fighter than morales
like it or not floyd has beaten guys that were beatable but established and about half a dozen of em were ranked top 10 p4p
morales faced the best in his division and often went toe to toe

that to panda means morales had tougher challenges, he faced fighters that definitely had a chance of beating him

losses are overrated specially nowadays...

i will take el terible's resume anytime than joan guzman's who got no losses at all...

Erik Morales was willing to face 'em all.

[bojangles1987]

I'd say Morales slightly, basically because of Barrera and Pacquiao. He has six losses but they were only to four people, two being Pacquiao when Morales was past it and the other two being to Diaz and Raheem for the same reason.

Mayweather accomplished more, but against not quite as good competition.

so who deserves more credit if you are going to look at it in a boxing historian's perspective?
