      Two great fighters, tough call. I lean towards JMM but won't argue Morales with anyone.

        Unlike JMM, Morales didnt need roids to become the Hulk to beat Pacquaio

          Marquez cleared out the 135 division completely and had solid wins up to 147. Morales beat the better fighters 122-126 but took a lot of losses toward the end of his career. I'm a fan of both...but i take marquez. You have to take their careers as a whole, not just prime for prime.

            Ranking the 3 great Mexican warriors Morales, MAB, and JMM is pretty debatable and seems to always get mixed opinions.

            I'm gonna say Morales but honestly I just like him the most. A case can be made for all 3.

              Marquez for me
              But it's biased
              Not just for the pac ko
              That man is one of the greatest fighters I have ever seen

                48ers go with Morales of course. That ko was too much for them so they forever hate on Marquez.

                    Easily Marquez.

                    If Morales won the Barrera trilogy it would be a different story.

                    Still wish they would have fought at their peaks, it would have been sick!

                      Its a tough choice but Morales gets my vote, he's the true essence of a Mexican boxer.
                      That win was disputed and Pacquiao was hampered by a cut caused from a head butt. I don't give Morales real credit for that win.
