    yeah it was his job but he didnt do it well enough theres countless evidence on the internet, he was so too much of a primadonna bought into his own hype.

    Bloody hell man, Hamed was prime, the man was not declining at all in any way, shape or form. It's funny how his looked less mpressive against the better fighters he fought, isn't it? He just got found out against a far superior fighter. End of.

    MAB's right hand, which wasnt too bad really, but wasnt quite as good to give Manny much problems ala Marquez and Morales'.

    Same reason Cotto would always lose to Pacquiao. Pac would also give a prime Oscar plenty of hell because of that, but with Oscar's reach and power, im not sure how that would turn out. 50/50 fight for me.

    Who cares? The Mexican fans miss nothing. Morales is more respected than Barrera and forever will be. Guess why?

    Because MAB delcined before Morales and JMM .. A younger MAB would of boxed better ..This one just couldn't keep up with Manny's foot speed ..And for a previous post to say that if you took away Barrera's left he's an average fighter ?? Yeah right .He beat a prime Morales twice name one average fighter that can say that ?
     
  11. barrera didnt know who pacquiao was in their first fight. the speed and power took him by surprise and he got hurt early. he could have easily outboxed him if he had boxed with more caution. pacman was so one dimensional back then.

    Funny. That didn't seem to work well in the rematches.

    And you're an even bigger dumbass if you think a simple number is what determines the fighter's lifecycle stage. You do know what a lifecycle is, don't you? And you do know that not everyone has the same type?
