Did Pacquiao beat a prime Barrera?

Prime Morales is at 122-126, prime Pac is at 135-147.

So how can it be?

 

:good

 

Yeah, Pac was green when he fought Barrera, JMM and Morales huh lol...:-(

 

Of course a PAc fan is going to say Pac's prime was at 135-147 lol... He ko'd a bum in Diaz, and old Dlh, and a sliding Hatton lol... Of course Pc's prime is 35-147 lol... Comical!

 

First, let's remember they fought twice. The first time, Barrera was prime. He had a streak of wins, and was fighting very well. He had wins against Hamed, Morales, Tapia, Kelly, etc. So that time around, Pacquiao did fight a prime Barrera. The second time around, Barrera was definitely going down. He had just been destroyed by Marquez, and had been worn down from previous wars (Morales trilogy, Marquez, Pacquiao).

 

Seriously, for a guy whose in the prime of his life, he is sure going for the weakest link in every division.

What a shame.

 

So when is/was Pac's prime?

 

LAS VEGAS — People know about Manny Pacquiao now.
They know he’s considered the best pound-for-pound fighter in the world. That he’s trying to defy the odds and beat Oscar De La Hoya here on Saturday in the “Dream Match.”
They even know how to pronounce his name.
PACK-ee-ow.
But five years ago, the man they call Pac-Man was a virtual unknown — until he came to San Antonio as a decided underdog against the great Mexican fighter, Marco Antonio Barrera.
The bout took place Nov. 15, 2003 at the Alamodome, and it launched the Filipino sensation’s career.
“I remember the odds were 4-1,” Pacquiao said with a smile Wednesday. “Nobody expected me to win that fight.”
Nobody who was there that night — or watched the fight on HBO — will ever forget it.
Pacquiao stunned the boxing world and the 10,127 fans in attendance with a convincing 11th-round technical 8knockout.
He dominated the fighter everyone considered the best featherweight in the sport with power, fast hands and a relentless style that would become his trademark.

 

Like I said, RJJ was considered the best LHW in the world when he lost to Tarver, but it didn't mean he was in his prime, even though he was P4P.

Do you NOT get that?!!

Dude, it was a nice win for Pac, sure it was, but you guys put him in the top 20 for that win, a contreversial W against JMM, a couple wins vs a shot Morales, and a win over Hatton. :roll:

That is pretty pathetic don't you think.

Answer me this, based on those wins, does Pac deserve to be in the top 20, hell, even top 30? And if so do you rate Oscar higher than Pac, if so why?

 

so tell me, when is morales prime?

 

You got to be kidding. Morales was already losing it when he fought Chavez.

 

but you are very biased!! pretty pathetic dont you think!!:thumbsup

 

marquez beat an overated diaz, lost to shot casamayor, beat a well past it barrera, beat a overated juarez. this **** is easy uliuli.

 

answer us, what weight Morales is prime?

 

The minute he beat Barrera, or even before that.
