Barrera-Morales because each installment was competitive. Gatti owned Ward in the rematch, and Ali outboxed Frazier by a landslide in their rematch. Barrera-Morales fights were all debatable and violent.
Who has the best trilogy?

Barrera/Morales blows Gatti/Ward out the water in my opinion. Gatti/Ward was great but Barrera/Morales was on another level. Two great fighters beat out two exciting fighters in my opinion.
I have never seen the complete Ali/Frazier trilogy so I can't comment.
Bowe/Holyfield are definitely at the top as well.Comment

I've always loved Gatti-Ward. Granted they aren't on the same talent level of Barrera-Morales, but what they did was amazing. They managed to do something very special. I don't think there are many of boxers who would be willing to go through that much punishement, for no titles, but simply for pride and because that's how they fight.
I can understand how some people see that as more brawling and not really appealing, but personally I loved every minute of those fights. I like how humble both guys were. There was no trash talk or ill will, it was just two guys refusing to quit and taking as good as they gave. Each fight had great moments and each fight left you feeling amazed at what these two guys did to each other.Comment

Barrera vs. Morales for me. I'm much to young to have witnessed any of the Ali Frazier battles. The Ward and Gatti fights were great. But Barrera and Morales are top fighters. I admire Ward and Gatti's courage but Ward is a punching bag, and so is Gatti when he fights top-level opponets (Mayweather, and Delahoya)Comment

the only problem i have with your last statement is that you said gatti showed he could box. The problem with that is Ward couldnt he wasnt a great boxer nor was gatti they had skills yes but against ward most people could show they were good at boxing.Originally posted by SweatWell, I think Gatti-Ward I showed that Gatti can also box and he was good at it and he can definitely brawl too. I dont know, because I like to see blood in any fights so I like Gatti-Ward better because it was bloody.
I love the drama that Ali-Frazier had from first to last before during and after the fight, the barrera v morales first 2 were great lacked that 3rd fight drama that makes a truly great trilogy, and gatti v ward was all fight action really nothing outside the ring to raise the feel for the upcoming match. All 3 were great trilogies but Ali-Frazier had the worksComment
