    Two brilliant, dominant champions in classic divisions and eras.

    Who was more skilled?

    Most will say Carlos and many will say by a fair bit. I give the nod to Carlos but think it is very slim. I think both guys are awesome and if not underrated than certainly under discussed

    Carlos was a great all round fighter, but I definitely think Manuel is superior on the inside. He was truly brilliant there. His bout against Castillo shows his varied skill and vicious offense. Tyson definitely got his right hook - right uppercut combo from him. Wouldn't be surprised if Duran got something aswell indirectly, they look similar inside, especially with the right upper.
