    All 4 warriors have been through many countless entertaining brawls in their careers. Who do you think was involved in the most battles in your opinion?

    This. Pac has been in some big name wars. So you may think it's him hands down.

    But Morales would go to war with bums just because.

    My instinct would say Morales. He always made fight tougher than they had to be. He could have used his superior jab to coast though a lot of fights in the 122-130 days, but he was only to happy to get involved in a war.

    He had that great quality of, whenever he was hit, he would throw any pretensions of defence out of the window and go toe-to-toe.

    All of these guys were warriors but Morales gets my vote.

    Yeah before his recent fight with Vargas Steve Bunce started reeling off Pacs resume and I was just in awe after hearing em all straight off.

    He had that war with Guty Espadas before showing him what it was in the rematch.

    Yeah. The thing with Morales was he could box, but he just loved to fight! The Espada's fight was an example of making fights tougher than they had to be, like you said. In Jin chi was a tough mother****er period, he had no choice but to mix it up with him.

    Pac and Barrera didn't go to war. That was a good old fashioned one sided ass whooping.

    Barrera took an insane amount of Pac pain.

    I've got Morales' career on dvd from his early days. From Kelley - Pac, there's very few fights I'd skip. Even when he was dominant, he was very entertaining. He beat Famoso Hernandez 118-110 and it was a FOTY contender!

    Not my favorite fighter. He's actually my least favorite of these 4. But he's got to be hands down the frontrunner for most entertaining fighter of the last 2 decades.

    Yeah. I remember that fight! Carlos Hernandez put up a good fight, and there was a lot of significance there because of the unification! Very good fight!

    There aren't that many boxer's who are exciting and genuinely great. Morales and Hearns are the only ones who fit the bill in my lifetime.
