    Barrera and Morales are great fighters, who need to be respected but they were in their prime at different weights. Mayweather was in his prime at 130 and above while Barrera prime was 126/122, Morales prime was 122. Barrera and Morales were never great 130 or above.

    Its not a realistic match-up like I said its like those who match-up PBF and Pac against the likes of SRL and Tommy Hearns.

    It's a circular argument. Both of their resumes have flaws. For instance:

    1) Cotto: coming off his best win? He beat Margarito (at a catch weight by the way), the same Margarito who you basically say got ruined by Shane. Furthermore, it's arguable if 154 is indeed Cotto's best weight, I know he hasn't been there as long as he was at Welter, but his 154 opponents haven't exactly been the cream of the crop (with the very notable exception of Floyd Mayweather that is)

    2) Victor Ortiz: was indeed coming off a strong win against Berto, but has shown himself to be, both in the past and recently, a fighter lacking in mental fortitude. So does this win really look that great on FMjrs record? Ortiz just got beat by 135/140 lber

    3) Mosley: Pretty decent win, although it did come like a year and something after Mosley took it to Margarito. I'm not saying that it's not a good win, it's just not as glorious as some people make it out to be.

    4) JMM: Juan is a great fighter for sure, but he climbed 2 weight classes to make the fight - at a catchweight that Floyd didn't actually honor.

    5) Hatton: Had shown that 147 is not a good class for him prior to the Floyd fight, and then fought Floyd at 147...I mean, he was undefeated, sure, so I guess that's something. You have to ask yourself, what's more important: ideal weight class? or the 0 on the record? What contributes to a better performance?

    See? It can be done to both guys resume. The point you should take away from this is: **** both of these guys, they refuse to make the fight that fans want to see. It's both of their faults, they are acting like children, they both deserve our scorn.

    its the ****in truth. nobodies discrediting them. just telling it how it is.

    if they thought Junior Jones or Zahir Raheem were bad, oh boy, its gonna get nasty.

    seeing how he shut out Marquez should let u get the picture. two completely different classes. and no, dont bring up castillo, there is no way possible Barrera or Morales can apply the same pressure. theyre too small and that was floyds first fight @ the weight. and they damn sure cant try to box with him.

    would have been great fights if it was made since floyd was open to catchweight fight back then.

    Ortiz was knocked out by a sucker punch though.

    Pac struggled with JMM in 2004, struggled with him in 2008 and in 2011..
    It is a clear evidence that Pac couldn't handle smart counter punchers with accurate right hands, in any stage in his career..

    Every version of Mayweather beats every version of Pac

    Nobody backpedals like me.

    I wasn't talking H2H, but which fighter would do compared to all other fighters better.
