I'm not Mexican. I am a Barrera and Morales fan. This trilogy was a bigger deal, and more thrilling. :conf This isn't/shouldn't be about celebrity status (who gives a crap about that?). It is/should be about the fights.
If those guys knocked eachother down ten times tonight I would still pick Barrera vs Morales because I'm just biased.
I absolutely love Barrera and highly respect Morales, but with all do respect, I think the Vazquez/Marquez trilogy surpasses them by a tiny bit.
Its not the celebrity status to me, its just that I knew Barrera and Morales more & had seen more of their fights.
I'd only seen about 3 each of Israel's and Rafael's before their first fight and was already a HUGE fan of both. This series has pushed and cemented them as favorites of mine, right up there with, if not above, MAB and EM.
