WBO champ Hamed vs. WBC champ Morales and IBO champ Barerra vs. WBA Freddie Norwood and you match IBF champ Marquez with the winner of either and who becomes undisputed champ at 126?
Hamed in his prime was better than all of these guys imo, his prime was gone by the time he fought MAB
Morales & Barrera at that point at their peak were arguably the top 2 fighters in the world & I thought Morales beat Barrera clearly at 126 in their 2nd fight to take top p4p spot. Erik Morales of this time period was the greatest fwt around. Defo.
WTF are you on.:huh MAB and Hamed are basically the same age. By the time they met MAB had been fighting longer, had more fights under his belts and was involved in more wars than Hamed. They were both prime, don't try to take that victory from MAB:nono
Yeah ok its was that same prime Hamed who Barrera retired ! I love it now that after the fact that Barrera exposed him was his prime gone ..But going into that fight not many even gave MAB a chance ..
Bare in mind Hamed was pretty inactive and unfocused by this point, Barrera and Morales were super bantams and MAB dropped a split to El Terrible before Morales stepped up to beat Kevin Kelley, Marquez wasn't great at this point and had just lost to Norwood, and Norwood himself was probably in his prime. I would pick Morales to beat Hamed and Barrera to edge Norwood. If Marquez faces either Morales or Barrera he loses (same goes with Hamed or Norwood). Therefore Morales and Barrera would face of and seeing as Morales won their encounter around this time (though it was a split) and he was probably the better fighter at this point I would go with Erik Morales.
