    From over the scene that talks about boxing...

    Barrera says hes going to return November 7th to fight Kobori of Japan for the WBA lightweight interim title, the same title Valero is expected to fight for in his next fight for.

    Could have been a good match up few years ago but I am afraid we will see the same Barrera as in his 2nd Juarez fight - unwilling to exchange, unless Valero is chinless.

    Huge fight, I say bring it on!

    Look, Barrera will return no matter what, so you can't do anything about that. He should stay retired, but he won't. But at least he wasn't retired by serious beatings. A close one vs. Marquez and a disappointing but phisically not-so-bad points loss to PacMan - he has 1-2 fights left in him IMO. So, it's nice: go after the belt and then fight Valero. It's a great great fight. Then retire for good! Please MAB!

    WOW, seems like Barrera will fight anyone. Valero is a dangerous fighter. Good for him.

    Shows how much more heart MAB has than Pac.

    Barrera needs to do this after that nutless performance against Pac.

    Just ignore him. He's been hating on Pac ever since he got here.

    He should not come out of retirement, he is risking too much (health, his record, etc.). There is no point in fighting for a title when you aren't planning to make many fights later on.

    It was clear that in the Pac fight he wasn't willing to engage anymore, just stay retire MAB please. A victory won't do or add anything new to your legacy, a loss will have more effect.

    people on ESB will take any opportunity to take a stab at Pac, even when he has nothing to do with the topic

    Valero said he was going after Pac WBC belt after Pac vacates it to fight DLH.
