    Agree completely that MAB has been a hall of famer for a while now. And what I was saying was that when tragedy hit Corrales he was already well, well past his best. Career vs. Career there's no comparison. Corrales had a very short peak while Barrera willed himself into legendary status.

    I just think Corrales at his best would have given MAB a very hard time at 130.

    Barrera lost twice to Junior Jones i mean really? Junior Jones? Morales ko Jones like what 3 rounds? lol. I think a prime much taller Corrales with pop would have beat Barrera especially the way barrera fought after beating hamed. If anybody knows boxing would agree.

    Barrera wasnt even in his prime at 130 pounds lol. But lets say barrera was still prime and move up to 130 pounds to fight a prime corrales? I think Corrales would have beat Barrera. Career wise of course Barrera but if those 2 in their prime would have fought againt each other? Too me it's clearly corrales since he's much taller with bigger pop.

    Yeah it's unfortunate he left this world so soon. It would've been interesting to see how his career would've played out.
