    Both were great but I think Pac-Marquez was a bit more dynamic, especially the last fight. However, it's very close. The Barrera-Morales feud was unreal.

      The feud was strong with Morales- Barerra but the JMM vs Pac fights were more volatile and back and forth. The ending to JMM vs Pac was epic.

      So i say Jmm vs Pac was more interesting for me.

            You'd be hard pressed to name a better four fight rivalry, let alone one spanning five divisions. So I'll have to go with that one especially given the last fight ending in one of the most dramatic kos in history.

              Because the other 2 where fighting angry and making the fight sloppy not saying it wasn't entertaining but pac and J.M.M foughyt leveled headed and show skills whereas the other 2 fought swinging wild not only till the later fights did they fight composed

                  Berrera v Morales was more intense because of the tension between them. Those were legit grudge matches.

                    If you say the second fight was just swinging wildly, I dont think you have ever seen the second fight. Morales actually boxed alot and surprised many by doing so.
