once and for all: who is the best out of these guys: morales, mab, jmm

[Swag Hustla]

I take Morales

But Barrera does have the best nickname ever

I picked Barrera, but I think Morales has a better nickname.

El Terrible just sounds bad ass.

[TuRoK'em]

i have to say its morales,barrera,and marquez no doubt.

[boxer2k5]

i dont know thats hard. prime for prime i think morales but i dont know its hard everytime i pick one i find reasons to pick the others. they all great in their own ways. they all can box technically sound. had great hearts had iron will. good chins. gave boxing fans countless classic bouts. i feel we are spoiled to have all 3 and really cant pick 1.

morales was the ****in man in his prime. great jab. great right hand. granite like chin. all action warrior. I don't know what's not to like about morales. if you don't like morales, or atleast grudgingly respect him, you should just stop watching boxing.

let's face it, though, mab will always give morales trouble, but aside from mab, he was a ****in beast.

And most importantly, out of these 3 guys, he is the only one to actually beat pac.

barerra is a great great boxer. I cannot praise him enough. but he isn't no morales imho. he got whupped by junior jones. pac destroyed him in their first fight. mab ran from pac in the rematch and still lost.

marquez is also a great great boxer. he deserves all kinds of praise. but he is a flame next to morales's bonfire. jmm lost to pac 2x in close fights. out of the 3 of them, he was able to climb higher in weight divisions, but jmm was always the bigger guy at 126 lbs, while morales and mab had to climb up from the lower weights.

vote and discuss

LOL@ you talkin about these guys are so great and anyone who doesnt appreciate them "needs to stop watching boxing", yet you always bash Mayweather who is levels beyond all of these guys in boxing skill. And dont say that "oh hes a ***** and they are real warriors...blah blah blah". Yes these guys are great fighters but dont be hypocritical when acknowledging fighters who are great. Keep it Fair and balanced Pull.

With that being said I think Marquez is a better technical fighter than both of them but if we are measuring whos GREATER on resumes and epic battles then I would say it would have to be Morales, MAB, & JMM in that order....all tied!

pains me to say this as a former barrera nuthugger and morales hater........

morales.

barrera close second.


marquez is not on their level imo.

the only thing marquez got going for him is he aged better than the 1st two.

not surprising because marquez wasn't really fighting anyone when barrera and morales were in their primes going to wars against tough opposition.

I don't think Morales beat a Prime Pac. You're a moron if you think Pac fights the same way in 2005 who only throws straight left hand and nothing else..

the newbs think jmm is greater because they don't know any better.

whenever they talk about how great jmm is i always ask them , "what's jmm's best win before 2007?"

after they look up boxrec and see the choice is derrick gainer or a past it manuel medina......

they then go on this..... "well everyone ducked him" bull****.

How are we defining who's the "greater" boxer? Resume? Wars they've been in? or Skill?
