    Out of Marquez, Morales, and Barrera, it's Morales by a hair. However, Morales and Marquez were PED users, so maybe Barrera was indeed the best. If you ask ever, it's probably Chavez. Sanchez didn't have enough to cement his place and it sure as hell can't be Lopez. He was a superb ring technician, but virtually no names of note on his resume. His best opponent gave him hell and I thought beat him in the first go-round.

    Sanchez and it's not even close. Sanchez beat the greatest Puerto Rican fighter of all time and Gomez was p4p #3 in an era that included The Fab 4! What Sanchez did by 23 not only beating the greatest Puerto Rican fighter, but also the greatest African fighter is like Canelo beating Mayweather and Golovkin. And Sanchez was only getting started. Brawler turned boxer, he was iron chinned like Chavez, countered like Marquez, could go toe to toe like either MAB or El Terrible, and had footwork like Ali. And no one came close to his stamina. He was after Arguello and favored to beat him too. For Nelson and LaPorte say he was the best they ever fought and considering who they fought, that says alot.

    You would have to go with Chavez as the greatest mexican but the best without doubt was Ricardo Lopez.

    Disagree. I believe Chavez is the greatest Mexican ever. I believe Morales outboxes Gomez. And I believe he finishes Nelson even faster.

    Remember that Pacquiao at 130 is greater than any fighter Sanchez ever fought and Morales beat him clearly.

    As for Barrera I also believe he could have handled Nelson and Gomez as well.
