    Pretty much nailed it.

    Only changes i would make are:

    Best Perfromace for Barrera: Jesus Salud
    Ricardo Lopez vs Kitichai Preecha
    Salvador Sanchez: Danny Lopez 1
    Juan Manuel Marquez: Michael Katsidis (aside from getting KD, his perfromance on that was brilliant.)

    I was thinking performance, but not dominating performance. I had in mind the tough fight that brought out their best. For example I'd say Nelson was a greater fight for Sanchez than Gomez was, because it seemed to test him more. Even though the Gomez fight was phenomenal. But I like your breakdown too. Great answers.

    After the other week's thread,I'm surprised Cotto and Trinidad never got a shout.

    I would also like to give a shout to Ruben Olivares' perfromance in the 3rd Chucho Castillo fight...A true brtilliant display of the sweet science by Rockabye.

    That's a great post.
    I totally agree with Sanchez for MAB's best performance.I know Peden wasn't 100% but that might be my best JMM performance and on a purely personal level,I'd have Jones or Pacquaio for Morales.
    This is a good thread with good responses.

    For Zopilote and anyone else,if you took Barrera-Morales 1 out of it,what is the absolute best fight between two Mexicans? Zarate-Zamora?
    I don't know.I'd have to think about it.
    Divac would enjoy this thread as well.

    Marquez-Vazquez 2 or 3 most definetly.

    Chavez-Martinez is another very underrated classic between two Mexicans IMO.
