    Of course it ain't gonna happen. But this is boxing we are talking about. Would this constitute the upset of the year? Perhaps the decade even though the decade isn't even over yet?

    How devastating would it be for Pac's confidence? After all, very few people are betting on MAB... And how bad would the Philipino people take it?

    Well, the last question I don't even want to think about too much, since I happen to like Philipinnos. But anyways. :smoke

    if mab kos pac, then props for him. if its a lucky shot, then good for him for having his revenge. not quite special though for winning due to lucky shot. it will sting for a while but pac fans will give whatever is due :good

    it would be an upset...but we're not talking Tyson/Douglas, and MAB isn't shot and is a legend so he CAN beat Pac...Pac is on top of his game right now but let's not talk like he's a fukin prime Tyson or something...MAB has more than a legitimate chance...

    Lucky punch?:huh Oh, well... I think that in order to KO Pac, you can't pull a Tarver/Jones. It will have to be an accumulation of punches. A lot of "lucky" ones landing. :yep

    It would realy crush his confidence. I wonder how the Filipino people would react.

    3/1 upsets happen at least twice a year in boxing's big fights. It would will be an excellent win to Barrera, and it will not be the first time Paciquao has blown it as a warm favourite.

    It's gonna be huge . . . if it happens . . . and make no mistake about it, it's a very live possibility.

    Don't count out MAB just yet. :yep

    Surprised it is that high, I would think a lot of late money would go on Barrera; taking it down a point or so to the 9/4-7/4 range.

    It would be an upset to be sure, but certainly not of epic proportions.....
