    I like watching both of them fight, never miss their fights. But Morales is my fav. fighter. lost some respect for barrera when he made fun of morales poor background. Both great fighters though!

    You know it seems stupid to me to think this way but I've got to go with morrales......I think it was his first two fights with pac that did it for me. I think the way barrera almost seemed resigned to defeat before his fight with pac vs the way morrales gave it everything he had both times (not including the third fight cause I'll cut him some slack on that one) and in the end went out on his shield cemented him in my mind as the favourite between the two. Like I said if you consider both careers this may seem like a petty distinguishing factor given the amount of times both of these guys have gone to war. But its how i feel.

    pinoys love anybody with more money than them. Its just funny how during the trilogy, Morales was totally hated. He makes a cheese commercial and he could be the next best actor in the philippines.

    Choosing between them is like choosing between your own children. I don't hate either, but I think I'd give the edge to Morales for immediately going for the rematch in Pac's prime. Compared to MAB totally dissappearing off the radar and not wanting an immediate rematch.

    When it came to excuses..

    MAB: I lost because of a forrest fire

    Morales: I gave it my best shot

    advantage: Morales

    When it comes to people saving their asses from a complete annhilation:

    MAB: His corner throws in the towel

    Morales: Just elected to stay on the ground

    advantage: even

    yeah this is after making statements like I want to be friends with him but he's just mean to me. Thats disengenuous. At least morrales doesn't beat around the bush on this one.

    I was a MAB fan until he did his best SPinks impression and ran from Juarez in the rematch . . .with his gloves taped up to his fingertips.

    Shoulda rematched Pac years ago. . . waited until JMM earned the Pac rematch to take it.

    Juan manuel is also popular in mexico city (south) cause he is trained by beristain who also trained finito lopez and daniel zaragoza but he is not as popular as morales or barrera

    Fan of both, they are such opposite personalities, but both brought it hard in the ring. More a fan of the earlier brawling MAB, but still watch him everytime he fights.
