    Probally my 3rd favorite fighter of all time behind Tommy Hearns and Bernard Hopkins. If every fighter had the mentality of him then every fight would be a fans dream.

    The way he fought I would have been shocked if he was still on top at 32. He just casually absorbed power shots way too often. He fought more to please the fans than to just win and that makes for short careers.

    Great video! Even though I didn't jump on the EM bandwagon early in his career I came on towards the end of his career what a fighter. Pac-EM 3 was a hard fight for me too see a warrior like EM down with nothing left to give with the look of defeat in his eyes it almost brought me to tears. I hope he doesn't return to the ring.

    Very similar.

    All I know is Morales came up short in their trilogy, and I give preference to Marco for being the more technically gifted fighter.

    Do not state Morales is better than Barrera as if it is a fact.

    That was a great fight very underrated. Chi was a good fighter I liked watching him. WTF happened to him?

    I can see why some boxing fans don't "love" Manny as much as Morales.

    Erik looked the part of a real warrior. Long and lean, a granite jaw, a strong face, a warrior's heart, and he fought courageously. He's also got Mexican boxing pedigree and machismo.

    Manny looks like a dorky little guy who's always polite and ****.


    About Chi:

    He retired in boxing and fought in K1, I believe. Kickboxing. He got tired of getting **** boxing deals and purses.

    Morales beat Pacquaio so HA!

    Although Morales lost to David Diaz...so I guess David Diaz> Erick Morales AND MAB combined :huh

    I'd like to see Morales and Barrera doing commentary on boxing. God it'd be with its weight in gold. They'd be talking about the fight one second then the next thing ya know they're brawling at the table!

    Watching Morales beat Pacquiao was wonderful. He was not supposed to win given how far removed from his peak he was, but he gave it too them hard.

    But Manny's like Groundskeeper Willie from "The Simpsons".

    Willie looks like a dorky old Scottish ginger dude, but once he takes his shirt off, he suddenly looks like Mr. Olympia. :D
