    i also feel the first fight was alot better than the other two and the entire trilogy isnt as good as morales/barrera or vasquez/marquez
    The first fight was a corker and the third fight was thrilling also, But the weak second fight was far below anything that Morales/barrera/Vasquez or Marquez offered.
    when you consider the fact that many people feel boxings popularity has fallen due to a weak heavyweight division, its a shame that these lower divisions dont have the same draw power, as they tend to have the more exciting fights imo

    Thats 100% on the button.
    I really can't account for the publics love affair with the heavies.
    The smaller men are more skilled, faster, more willing to fight, fight more regularly, have better physiques and often personalities and fight in much more loaded divisions.

    I can't fathom it

    think too many think along the lines of bigger is better

    heavyweights are beloved to have alot more power and knock people out more often and therefore many casual fans/ general public see it as the only divison that matters

    Vazquez-Marquez trilogy is better. Lots of action, too violent.

    But if you talk about in terms of rivalry, no fighters tops the Barrera-Morales.
