    Yours? I have no idea personally, aside from that Gomez is #1, Morales and Barrera are top 5 and Wilfredo Vasquez is somewhere along there too.

    He's never really mentioned a lot at 122, but purely in terms of head-to-head I'd take Pac over anyone at 122 not named Gomez.

    I think Fenech is probably third in terms of H2H quality.

    Fenech's style is highly favorable over Morales, or Barrera, because neither was a devastating hitter, and both of them would brawl with Fenech.

    But against Gomez and Pac, I think the firepower would be way too much for Jeff.

    You don't think Morales would beat Pac at 122?

    Excellent. Agree 100% about Wilfredo & Manny. Not Fenech though.

    No.

    I kinda feel like Morales' win over Pac was a 1/100 occurrence, and I think the gloves contributed to Morales' win.

    I think Pac would beat Morales virtually everytime.

    What part do you disagree about Fenech?

    Barrera ranked over Gomez at 122????

    Is Marco your second cousin or something?

    And I hope head-to-head wasn't factored into your risk, because Pac would have completely destroyed Vuyani Bungu.

    I keep mentioning him, and he keeps getting ignored, but Sergio Palma deserves at least an honorable mention on the list.

    Palma would have KO'd a guy like McKinney.

    #1. Wilfredo Gomez
    #2. Erik Morales
    #3. Marco Antonio Barrera

    #6. Daniel Zaragoza
    #7. Guillermo Rigondeaux
    #8. Sergio Palma
    #9. Izzy Vasquez
    #10. Junior Jones

    Not including H2H at all. Gomez, Morales, Pac, Fenech and Barrera are the top 5 IMO, if I was to include H2H.
