    Well, it is a tough division for this......
    Something like this in my opinion :

    1- Wilfredo Gomez (without a doubt)

    2-Erik Morales
    3-Israel Vazquez
    4-Daniel Zaragoza
    5-Manny Pacquiao

    Is it a good list ? Feel free to disagree....
    What does yours look like ?
    Am I overrating Vazquez ?
    What is your opinion about the division and your top 5 ??

    Thanks :bbb

    Well, his win over McKinney was a great win.....But I´m not sure if that was enough for the top 5......I don´t know....Do you think he deserves the Pac place in the list ?

    1. Gomez
    2. Morales
    3. Fenech
    4. Barrera
    5. Bungu

    Slots 6-10 could be rounded out by the likes of Cermeno, Zaragoza, Larios, Isreal Vasquez, and either Junior Jones or Kennedy McKinney, with Pacquiao, Harris Patterson, Palma, and Wilfredo Vasquez also in the mix.

    Yes. Pac wasn't nearly the fighter at this weight that he became in higher weight divisions and isn't nearly as accomplished at the weight as Barerra and a number of others.

    Hmm...The two fights with McKinney are a good introduction to Bungu, and I think both are Youtubed.

    Yeah, sounds about right. If the decision had been given to Marco like it should have been, he'd be higher on the list. Beating a prime Morales at his own game goes a long way.
