Barrera was the boss, completely the ring generally, cleaner punches, much more effective aggression backing up Morales constantly.
Morales possibly edged the second fight though |

Best fight in the last decade. Right up there with Gatti-Ward and Vazquez-Marquez as the greatest boxing rivalry ever.

I have Limon-Chacon IV above this, the Gatti-Ward fights and whatnot.
Marquez-Vasquez III is truly incredible, right up there. |

That super featherweight era is the craziest, action-packed era of all time IMO. Insane. Just when you think Boza has staked his claim as the best Navarette slaughters him So much fun, and Limon-Chacon IV the best of the bunch IMO. |

I'm interested in the back story to Chacon-Limon...
I'm up for rewatching it- first time was in a drunken stupor. A good back story should make it that much better and happen a bit sooner... Never saw the Navarette fight either. I need to take some time to check out more lower-weight fights. I really have slacked on that. |

I wouldn't call Morales-Barrera I a "poor man's" anything. That was a seriously great fight by anyone's measure.
But yeah, Chacon-Limon IV was pretty fucking great. |
