on the site where boxing is the scene. barrera says if he does not get a pacquaio rematch he will retire because there is no point of him fighting on.
Great. I think he should retire. He doesnt take Pac at this point. Its time for Barrera to live the good life. Its time for Pac to fight the young guns.
Pac should fight Marquez - that's the top fight now. Both, imo, won convincingly vs Barrera. those stories have been told.
Yea, he is a fighters fighter and has never backed down from anyone. Pac is in his prime now, Barrera passed his a long, long time ago. Give me Pac vs Marquez, Soto, Guzman, and Valero.
Pacquiao doesn't need a Barrera fight no more, the latter is obviously far out from his prime he could easily beaten by Pac. But IMO this fight should happen, Pac should give Marco to prove himself before he retires. I'm sure a lot of boxing fans still looks forward for this rematch.
at the very, very least, that's a bit harsh about Pac's win over Barrera. that was a genuine shock, and he climbed out of his natural weight class(es) to take that one.
In his last few fights, Pacquiao has done nothing but fight a shot Morales, Solis who had a padded record, and a natural 122 fighter in Larios. I don't give a **** if Pacman started his career at 106, he was a teenager at the time.
We're factoring in knockouts now? I thought this was boxing? As long as Winky Wright beat his opponents convincingly, then there's no argument. It isn't a matter of being able to knock your opponents out or how exciting the fights are. If that were the case then Gatti would be in the Top 10. You can argue that Quartey and Tito were past their primes, but what does that say about Morales? At least Tito was coming off of a brutal stoppage of Mayorga and Quartey was coming off of a very controversial loss over Forrest. Morales on the other hand got thoroughly outboxed by Raheem and so it's not like Pacquiao's victory was that great. When Wright is facing former champions like Quartey, Pacquiao is facing journeymen like Velazquez.
