    Barrera vs Tapia has been the best call so far.

    What made Barrera want to carry Tapia?

    They both had a lot of respect for each other.

    Just watch the fight!

    totally disagree

    Mayweather beat Marquez but he was never able to hurt him as he would have to risk being countered

    Mosely simply ran from Pac

    ....and fichten Calzaghe

    Calzaghe did seem to drop the work rate against Jones out of respect so I agree with that one. Manny didn't quite carry Mosley he just...didn't actually turn the pressure on until late in the fight, a bit like Lebedev v Jones IMO (and as a result Jones was being competitive)

    I think Mayweather was content with absolutely schooling JMM,
    He probably couldve got the KO, but I think with Floyd hands troubles,
    that he was just happy to get the win, definately didnt carry.

    Also, Id give Jones the benefit, Calzaghe had worked hard.
    But late in the fight, his slaps probably wouldnt even KO a chinny Jones.

    I think Pac carried Margo, for sure.
    I think he even thought about carrying Cotto - but it wouldve been too
    obvious.

    I dont think he carried Shane, Pac cramped, couldnt cut off the ring
    and Mosley was in survival mode.

    I disagree with all three that you've chosen. Completely disagree.

    Pac vs Margo fits this description though.
