Crazy good wins. Especially the rematch. Got robbed of a KTFO in the first fight though.

It was a great win,and I'm a big MAB fan.The rematch cemented it and even though I'd like to think the later Barrera reverses it,you can't grumble after two bites at the cherry.

I don't agree with those saying MAB was in his prime. Physically he may have been prime but mentally he wasn't. in there first fight he was still a face first brawler. those losses turned him into a better fighter because he learned to become a boxer puncher rather than a brawler.

That being said, still great wins. Beating that version of barrera is still extremely impressive.

MAB was 43-0 and a pro for 7 years. he was in his prime
