    Naseem Hamed had potential, Kirkland Laing had potential, Herol Graham had potential....

    Pep, Saddler, Arguello, Armstrong... delivered.

    True,but Sanchez also delivered in his short life,i think its something like 5 boxers he beat went on to become World Champs,there would have been no Barry McGuigan as champ if he hadnt have been killed.

    Sanchez was a tragedy, but you have to be ruthless if you want to be fair; Sanchez could of, should of, but didn't deliver over the same sort of length as other Featherweights...

    Another potential great in the division, (Young Griffo), was sadly taken from us too soon as well...

    I can't see how Morales and Barrera are in so many top tens myself.

    You'll never see Marquez in this thread pal. He's still relevant. And we all know that fighters who are still relevant don't bode well through

    Marquez vs Morales around 2004 would have been an absolute belter.

    I think Morales of the remaining Fab Four members is best suited to beating Marquez.
