    Erik Morales, it pisses me off when people try to understate this man, hurts me, what a warrior.

    Who understates Morales? He's loved by everyone on this forum...if anyone, and I have to say it, it's Barrera who gets some **** for no reason.

    Explain. Barrera gets slagged because of me? Sorry, I'm confused. I just don't see the connection between me existing and Barrera being the subject of undeserved criticism? :huh Greg?

    Far too many to mention just 3 but ive always loved and admired the 'have gloves,will travel' kinda guys like Gatti,Holyfield and Quarry. Certainly not the best ever lived but they embody the spirit of the game to me.

    I think that used to be true, definitely, but not any more.

    Charley Burley - Sublime skills across the board, great power, total fearlessness and a true gentleman.

    The other two could come from a long list of names lie all the rest of you, but i'd go for Roman Gonzalez and Carlos Zarate right now.

    The 3 amigo's Morales, Barrera and Marquez all get abit of a rough ride i think. They're some of the most mainstream famous lower weight fighters and some people feel threatened and don't like them being given a chance against the guys from previous eras. Then there's guys like Bujia and Lora who say **** like Chucho Castillo would outclass them all

    It's not that they're mainstream though, it's because they're manly

    CARLOS ZARATE,

    I have not seen a whole of him, but when he hitting on on cylanders, like he was against Zamora he is a beaut. His infighting combinations and timing in that fight were as beautiful as any fighter I have seen.
