        Barrera is one of my favorite fighters all time. I respect him so much because he basically started out as a brawler and then did something that is incredibly hard to do and that is change his style and became a technical boxer.

        JMM because he was slightly younger, lived a little in the shadow of Barrera and Morales. He didn't really develop into a great fighter until later on in his career.

        If this was 5 years ago, I think it's a no brainer and say Barrera. His victories against the great Morales and the best LW of his time for me made him a great HOF fighter.

        but.....

        Since the performance of JMM vs Pacquaio who I think will go down as one of the greatest of all time, I have to give the edge to JMM now. He is such a pro, so hard working and his pure boxing skill is probably second to only Mayweather in the sport right now and for the last decade or so.

        I would have to give the edge to JMM but Mexico gave us 3 great fighters in Morales, Barrera and Marquez. We are truly lucky to have seen these men fight in our time.

                Marquez because him in his brother smashed the whole theory that a Mexican fighter had to be a face first brawler to be successful.
