    Would be a good fight, but I think Fenech is too physically strong and too active. Barrera could perhaps land enough shots to discourage Jeff, since his chin wasn't the best, but I think Fenech will smother him for the most part and weather a few tough moments to come out an 8-4 type of winner.

    I like Barrera to win a close decision based off his skill and speed but it would be a complete war with loads of bodypunching, could Barrera still goto war at 126? Because I think Fenech drives him into 1

    It just all depends on whether Fenech can break his heart imo, i'm really on the fence about it (no homo)

    Barrera was getting outworked by Erik Morales, Fenech will tax him I reckon. I don't think Barrera can win a decision. I think he knocks Fenech out before he wins a decision.

    MAB by decision in an Ali-Frazier type of affair.

    Yeah, Teeto, I think Fenech would have brought out the very best in MAB...and especially in a 15 round bout.

    MAB showed what a savvy tactical boxer he was when he went in against Naz when the popular consenses was that he'd do a mexican as a shocked Naz was hoping for.

    I see any fight with Fenech being a S/D either way, but a MAB KO ai'nt out of the question but it's an enthralling match-up for sure.
