    I always say there is not a lot between them, they do certain things better than each other, I feel Morales is a little better overall but really, no matter which group of neutral boxing fans you ask, there will never be a unanimous answer.

    Barrera was a skillful boxer-puncher.

    Marquez was a skillfull counter-puncher.

    either way, Barrera, in his prime, ducked Marquez. and so did Morales.

    But now, all three (Barrera, Morales, Marquez) are DUCKING Humberto Soto, and all 3 have ducked Soto since 2007, after Soto couldnt get Pac to fight him in 2006, so Soto KO'd Pac's brother-Bobby to try tu lure Pac to fight him, but Pac is deathly scared to fight Soto, just like MAB, EN, JMM are also scared to fight Soto too.

    Here's a vid where Soto KO's Pac's brother-Bobby (in the first 15 seconds of the vid).

    Marquez would stop Morales and Barrera in their prime at 126, so let's not bring him in this, remember Marquez 3-0 over Pacquiao, Pacquiao 2-0 over Barrera, Pac 2-1 over Morales, and Barrera 3-0 vs Morales, Marquez is clearly the greatest fighter of the last decade, and the greatest fighter of the 4 Greats.

    The weakest link of the great 4 featherweights Erik Morales would stop Soto at 126 and 130, Soto is not on the level.

    Marquez is outright better, for 1 thing Barrera is a 1 handed fighter pretty much and couldn't deal with outfighters that were faster than him

    Just watch their fight, watch their mutual performances against Pacman. BTW MAB had a much better performance against Pacman in the year he fought Marquez winning several rounds in the rematch
