    YES. Morales turned me on to boxing and I will always love him but JMM has shown he is the best of the 4.

    I would probably say, overall careers

    1. Pacquaio
    2. Marquez
    3 = Morales/Barrera

    I always said

    marquez
    morales
    barrera

    specially after part 3 and have always said Marquez is numbr 2 best ever from Mexico, because of skills longevity and consistently being ranked in the top P4P

    now this just solidifies it, Marquez should beat on Bradley next.

    Without a doubt. JMM is greater than MAB & Morales.

    Congrats to him for the amazing KO. KO of the year. And Fighter of the year.

    If you want to irrationally give Marquez credit for Pacquiao's accomplishments, as though they became Marquez's accomplishments because he bested him when they fought, that's fine. I wouldn't take it seriously but I would support your right to do it, in your own head.

    Nope. With all respect to Marquez. He's better than Pac, but no. One fighter won't make him greater then the other two.

    He will not surpass Pac's accomplishments, so Pac will always be greater than jmm.

    Career-wise? Pacquiao wins.

    So Pac can go on to make "history" but when JMM beats him 4 ****ing times that does not count towards JMM's credit. JMM has fought everyone that has given him hell and only ever lost to PBF.

    Well it sort of does, the 2 best FWs of this era and Marquez has a good case for being 4-0 against him

    Pacquaio has his own accomplishments, jumped more weights, but was a master of none of them

    Marquez has his own none Pac accomplishments, fighting all comers from 126-135 and coming out on top.

    Pac still had the greater career, but JMM certainly had his number...

    for me its

    Pac
    JMM
    Barrera
    Morales

    Manny Pacquiao is the greatest of the four, and by a clear margin. The other three are pretty much interchangeable in my mind.

    Is tarver greater than rjj cause he knocked him out?

    JMM is great. Last nights win elevates him to a much higher level but I don't think makes him greater than PAC
