    Dong Kyun Yum-WBC 122 Champion
    Royal Kobayashi-former WBC 122lb Champion
    Leonardo Cruz-future WBA 122lb Champion
    Carlos Zarate-52(51 KOs)-0 long reigning bantamweight champ
    Juan Meza-future WBC 122lb Champ
    Lupe Pintor-WBC bantamweight champ,future WBC 122lb Champ

    thats a pretty darn good list of guys if you ask me...especially considering that there were only 2 legitimate title belts the time(so they actually meant something)

    oh yea, and I had the first Barrera-Morales fight a draw.

      Gomez is the greatest 122 pounder of all time. Period,

      Morales is in the top 3 though. clearly/easily top 5.

      But, at 122 Gomez is the GOAT.

          Morales beat anybody who's anybody at 122 dumbass.



          Nice try though.





          And yes Morales is the best 122 of all time, Right there with wilfredo gomez
          The Pac fight wasn't at 122 for Barrera though. So what is the point? We talking about 122 here.

          But, Wilfredo Gomez is the GOAT at 122.

              Lupe Pintor? Don Kyun Yum, Kobayashi, Juan Meza(top 5 greatest fighter ever in the division), Leonardo Cruz,....

              Gomez is the goat man. Really he is, Just a beast. Undefeated, never lost awesome KO ratio. He is the GOAT.

              Morales is up there.

              But, Gomez is clearly #1. It really can't be debated. 2-5 can be debated. #1 spot belongs to Gomez.

                No way. Zarate, Sanchez, Nelson, and Pintor is a who's who list. (Though Sanchez and Nelson were different divisions)

                I didn't mean Barrera was top 3. I just said that because he was being compared to Morales by other posters.

                  Morales is one of the greatest at 122 but Gomez is leagues ahead of everyone else, imo

                    Barrera 13 title defenses,

                    faced 8 titlist.

                    Beat Jimenez, Benavidez, Fernandez, DOMINATED Agapito Sanchez. And, had a hell of a fight with McKinney to put HBO BAD on the map.

                    Barrera is up there at 122 also..

                    Top 5.

                      i know who he is, he was a beast but not compared to the monster Morales was, "IMHO" Morales's resume at 122 outweighs Gomez's resume at 122.
