    what did barrera do that was so bad outside the ring?

    Nah what i meant to say was that even if he was an ******* outside and inside the ring. But in all seriousness, Barrera looks like he's a cool dude, but if you happen to be unlucky and get him upset.....then id hate to be you lol.

    its the reason i loved barrera over morales....also the fact that he never needed the money it amazes me the fights hes given us and has never given up most fighters that dont need it you usually see give up when a fight gets too hard

    To be honest, he is not ready to fight for any title. He just came back. He should take on a couple more fights and then go for the title shot. If he is doing it because he feels that Marquez could get the four before him, he is throwing himself into a fight that he is not 100% ready. It will be a hell of a fight if he is 100% ready. Morales is doing it the correct way especially when you were away from the game for a while.

    Nope, a 4th title doesnt put him above Marquez and Morales.

    The fact that you are fan of a phony like Naz, explains a whole lot.....he was a fraud, and any real boxing fan knew he was going to get his ass handed to him.......

    this is the reason i hate mab, cos he beat naz.

    how can you call naz a phony? he beat all the champs in his weight, and lost to mab, who is a sure fire HOF'er. is tyson a phony for losing to douglas? how about vitali for losing to lewis? or pac for losing to morales?

    good fighters can still lose.

    Wrong!

    Both Barrera and Morales are above Marquez. I personally have Morales above Barrera by a hair, but if Barrera manages to get the 4th title, then i'll have him above Morales, just by a hair.

    You are correct. He did beat very good fighters and champs. I was not a real big fan, but watched many of his fights due to his power and hoping he would get caught.

    Goes to show you that having a name and fame is more important in boxing than talent. Is easier for a guy like barrera that's over the hill and shouldnt be fighting anymore to get a tittle shot then an up and coming boxer.

    :hat

    But it makes sense buisness wise doesnt it not??? Isn't that the reason why you justify Juanma's ducking of Caballero?
