Marquez by far... beats morales in every category
Longevity
Skills
Multiple divisions
Never blown out by manny
Don't even see how it's debatable
Fanboys just love morales' exciting style but he was not on Marquez's levelComment

WTF are you talking about. Morales fought a just comin in his prime PAcquiao that has only the left hand as his arsenal, he as never yet to develop his right hook. And Morales won that fight for going in with his head like freaking truck and forced Pacquiao to wear pillows.Idiot the third fight was a robbery and in the first, except the one round, Marquez ripped Pacquiao in the 11 rounds.
There is not doubt, Marquez won the rivalry vs Pacquiao.
That cut was not nothing to PAcquiao, ****, man, is PAcquiao, no ****in MAtthysse.With that or not, Morales will be the winner because in that time he was in prime, or in a good condition.
Erik had all the tools in prime to defeat pacquiao like he did in the first fight.
That was at the end of Morales, and that situation is a great problem in Mexico, Vargas had the same problem too and was clean.
And in the second fight the difference was clear, Morales kept on getting tagged by that right hook to the body and head. Morales lost to Pacquiao 2 out of 3 times FACT, with one win was questionable and shady.Comment

At 135 morales was getting beat up by David Diaz n zaheer Raheem
Marquez at 135 was stopping champs like Juan Diaz, casamoyer and katsidis
140 neither did anything.. 147 Marquez iced a guy named mannyComment

Morales did the same thing to get the light welterweight title.Comment

Marquez is the greatest modern day Mexican fighter. Never had the support or following of the fans/press yet had the most accomplished career.
Unlike Morales he never quit in the ring and was the true embodiment of a Mexican warrior. No diva antics either unlike Morales and his glove demands.Comment

Lmao at this nonsense. Morales didn't need four fights to get a single win. Skills? Lmao. Morales was more skilled and consistently fought better fighters.Comment

Fanboy alert!!!!!!
Name the better fighters
Marquez has
Manny 4 times
Tim Bradley
Casamoyer
Katsidis
Juan Diaz twice
Barrera
Chris John
Floyd mayweather
And who got knocked out multiple times and got beat by David freaking DiazComment

Lost every millisecond to Floyd.
Again, didn't win against John boy.
Past-it Barrera, but good on him.
Diaz, Katsidis, & Casamayor are nice wins, but none are A-level by any stretch of the imagination. Barrera & Manny were.
He got beat clearly by Bradley.
All he has is Manny four times, and that's because of a styles clash, not his actual credentials. You wouldn't put him on Manny's level, would you?
Seriously, go take a look at both of their resumes. You can't tell me that Morales' isn't better?
41-0 with wins over McCullough, Jones, Zaragosa, Kelley, Juarez, BARRERA, then 48-2 with more wins over green Pacquiao, Ayala, Hernandez & Chavez unify.
PS, longevity? Morales won his first title six year before Marquez, and they each held their last in 2011. Marquez lost to a guy named Freddy... Morales was closer than anything in beating a monster in Maidana to win a belt at 140 with one eye shut...
It it because Morales lost both trilogies to Barrera & Manny coupled with Marquez having a KO victory of Manny the reasons you dislike Morales?
Would you put Barrera over both?Comment

Stop crying *****.
And you forget that Marquez deserved be champ in 147 but thanks to the robbery in the first fight Pacquiao vs Bradley he never was.Comment
