As you know im a huge Barrera fan but just i thought he deserved the first fight.... Morales clearly should have gotten the 2nd fight... Where as you cant make a case for Pac clearly winning either fight... I agree with LANCS a draw in the first fight was fair, although many though Marquez won that too...2nd fight was close but Manny didnt deserve the decision. Marquez should at least be 1-0-1 vs Pac.
Gomez-Sanchez is one of the best fights I've ever watched in my life. That would be brilliant :good (Great de la Hoya highlight by the way, YT lack them for some reason) I'll watch it properly tomorrow but I had a quick sneak peek at the knockdowns and well...massive respect for Cuesta for actually getting up and continuing the first time, and actually getting up the second time.
I personally can't make a case for EM "clearly" winning the rematch, A. I had MAB winning a narrow decision. No boxing exhibition took place.
Good thing we have youtube because ultimately the fans get to choose who really won those fights. MAB being 3-0 vs Morales that would be crazy. Seriously, I thought MAB should of won the first and Morales the rematch, but the judges did the opposite and gave Morales the first and MAB the second. How you like them apples?
Why would it have been crazy? I scored all three fights for MAB and I know other posters on here who did the same? I'm not saying they were robberies. The first two fights were razor close in my opinion, and like the Marquez/Pacquiao encounters, could have been scored for either man. The idea that EM outboxed MAB in 2002 is a myth. Thank-god we do have YT.
