    Well That won't work against Pacquiao. Pac is not as passive and tentative like Juarez. The guy is like a shark . . . he goes in for a quick kill everytime he smells blood.

    But if Barrera makes it hard for Pac by counter punching ala JMM . . . he might survive but won't win the decission.

    I agree no one should coutn Barera out...especially since PAC has been inactive and had a lot of outside distractions....BUT...with all of that said...PAC is still the best "FIGHTER" P4P (tied with Floyd) out there and his natrual ability ie Reflexes, speed, power and relentless style of fighting is ALOT for an OLD MAB to take on.

    I see PAC KOing MAB, but I wouldn't be surprised if MAB somehow proved the world wrong again and that Marco still has fight left in him. After all...I think he edged JMM in their most recent fight. It could have gone either way but I though MAB won by a round. He's still a TOP DAWG...the question is, can he beat the BEST?

    If pac comes in 100%... he beats mab for the same reason he beat morales.... he is in his prime & these guys are a little worse for wear at this stage.

    Taking nothing away from pac but his biggest wins were vs a declining morales who actually beat pac before his decline got really bad.

    :good

    I agree that PAC beat "Past their Prime" EM and MAB, but with that said...Both EM and MAB were still the division best or damn close to it. MAB just (IMO) beat JMM by a hair and EM gave MAB a pretty decent showing in their rubber match.

    You can never count out the "Baby faced Assassin", even though he is not so babyfaced anymore.

    when did shaeffer become a boxing expert? i must have missed a lot in the esb board that suddenly he became an expert in boxing. His opinion is shared by many including marco's mother, father, sister, brothers and trainers.
