    I remember MAB landing the more telling blows throughout the entire contest, particularly the liver shots.

    Had Barrera winning the first fight and Morales winning the second. The third fight was clearly Barrera.

    This is about how YOU scored the fight, how YOU saw it.

    I saw NO KNOCKDOWN so why on earth should I give MAB a 10-8 rd when he didnt deserve it. Thats crazy.

    Even if I did give him a 10-8 rd, he still loses anyway as I gave EM rds 3,4,5,6,7,9 & 10 with rd 11 even

    Knock down ? I didn't think it was legit at all. Morales did knock Barrera down (I can't remember if it was in the second fight or not).
    But yeah, I scored the fight a draw. Both were to much competitive to pick up a winner.

    :good Thats true.

    Neither man deserved to lose this fight & Morales DID floor MAB with a body shot in rd 7 of their 2nd fight, jay nady ruled no knockdown as he felt that Marco`s foot was stepped on but the replay showed different & all 3 judges gave Barrera a 10-9 rd & ultimately the fight.

    If rd 7 was correctly awarded to EM 10-8, Erik would have won by split decision with only that **** up of a man chuck giampa having MAB as the winner.

    In my heart, Morales is slightly better than Barrera anyway. I don't give a damn about judges scoring. Chuck Giampa proved many times he was a fool.

    Ive always seen EM as the better fighter myself, he should count himself very unlucky to be 2-1 down to MAB.

    As the great Pernell Whitaker once said.... `I dont need any judges, the fans are the real judges.`

    I agree.

    In a fight this close & this great, a draw would be more fitting but as I scored it, I had EM edging it but certainly he never dominated by any means. Barrera landed the more eye catching flurries but EM landed more in almost every rd & dont kid yourselves that Marco wasnt hurt in that fight, Erik shook him up plenty aswell & not just with the straight right.
