    Not really. I don't 'hate' any fighters except Kabary Salem, and that's because he more or less deliberately killed Randy Carver in the ring, with the help of a referee.

    Most of the people that don't like MAB dislike him because they think he puts on a fake gentlemanly front. It's not the fake part they hate, it's the 'gentleman' part. Too many people, apparently you included, only like their fighters dumb and ugly. Basically, you're a jerk.

    I agree here, the 1st was a nightmare to score, the 2nd was a lot easier with some hard rds but the 3rd was a piece of cake to score... 6-6 in rds.

    1,3,5,6,9 & 10 to MAB
    2,4,7,8,11 & 12 to EM.

    Rds 3 & 4 were the hardest rds to score & if you give 1 guy both those rds then I can accept a 7-5 margin either way.

    If anyone deserved it Barrera did because Erik was always playing catch-up, each time he pulled level, Marco would win the next rd + Barrera had a big rd 6, Erik never won a rd that big in the fight IMO.

    Overall tho in their series, I give the edge to Erik, mainly due to boxing Barrera`s ass off for the most part in fight 2.

    You could throw in Pac & Jones but its not needed really, Erik is ahead anyway IMHO.

    Pac will rank higher than Erik on ATG lists & rightly so, his weight jumping is 2nd to none in this & a lot of other era`s....

    BUT, at least keep it real & admit that in ALL THREE fights, Pacquiao was much closer to his prime than Morales, every sane fan must know this & I believe you know it too.

    and Barrera the shorter man had the best of him in the inside.

    Btw Morales took care of Barrera's daddys in Jones and Pacquiao.

    Morales > Barrera.

    Doesn't matter prime or not Morales would have beaten any version of Jones any day.

    And like i said if Morales would have Box instead of going to war he would have won all 3 fights.:good

    The Morales-Barrera debate is a circle, it never stops... for eg. I could say.... Barrera lost once in his prime to Pac & once past his prime... EM beat Pac past his prime in his last ever win & lost to Pac way past his prime.
    Jones beat Barrera twice in Barrera`s prime but got blasted in 4 by prime Morales.
    Morales won the 2nd fight clearer than any fight Barrera ever won (if he did win) & Barrera was at his peak more in fight 2 than the other fights.

    Then you could come back & say Jones was shot & on your card the 2-1 was correct.... ye see ?
