    Pacs' speed is too much for MAB no matter what version of MAB shows up.

    no version of barrera would beat pac. if you would fit the barrera who loves to engage more, it would end up much early for mab, yes even if he has an iron chin.

    No version of Barrara beats him huh and a young version gets Ko ed earlier ?? Did MANNY steam roll through Barrera in their rematch and KO him in under 5 or something like that ,that lead people to beleive such nonsense ???

    Barrera would have been able to control Manny's speed ..Hell he was able to nuetralize a prime version of EM yet Manny steam rolls through him ??


    Manny fans are just borderline obsessed ...This would be a pickem fight at their very best ..

    You're WRONG.

    They passed the borderline a long time ago. *******s are beyond obssesed at this point. These guys are going to make Pac a Holy Saint when Pac dies :lol: and based on beating a few past primed fighters. :yep

    I always had a feeling Manny "allowed" Barrera to see the final bell in their second fight. He could have really went after him the way he did Morales, but for some reason chose not to

    However, something clearly wasnt right with Barrera in their first fight. He was, or should have been prime, so God knows what went wrong. All i know for sure is that prime Barrera wouldnt have been so thoroughly thrashed by a pre prime Pac as he was


    strange goings on

    barrera fought of the back foot and just run in the 2nd fight. would a younger version of barrera fought pac off the backfoot?

    styles makes fights. barrera has the style to give morales fits but pac's style would trouble barrera. just like jmm has the stylistic advanatge over pac. the best bet was the barrera that actually fought pac but look at how he was dismantled?

    so when was pac's very best? many say that todays pac is the best version of pac. would barrera at 122/126 beat this version of pac p4p? you are delusional if you think this is a pick-em fight.

    its funny how these Pac haters seem to think, that Prime Morales does everything better than Pacman and doesnt explain as to how a prime MAB was outclassed by Pac.

    Prime Morales had nowhere near the power,speed nor workrate that Pacquiao had when Prime Mab faced him.

    122 and below, it's MAB. FW and above, it's Manny. Manny wasn't nearly as good at the lower weights as he has become, he's gotten better with every jump since FW. I think the weight issues he must have been having affected his chin as well as he got stopped a couple times from some pretty marginal punches... definitely nothing like the power MAB could have shown him at that weight. MAB was better at 122 than he ever was since. It's his prime weight, and he was far more developed at that weight than Manny was. I don't think Manny could take his shots.

    He chose not to because he knew that's what MAB wanted. His best and maybe only chance to win was to catch a careless, onrushing Pac with something big, hurt him and take him out. Pac was smart enough to shut that down.

    In the first fight, just about everything that could go wrong with a training camp DID go wrong for Marco. Whether you think that excuses his performance or not is up to you, but it's a fact. He got burned out of camp and had to relocate, his managers turned him into the boxing commission for having a plate in his head since they had just gotten fired, it was a total cluster****.

    You want to know why Pac was beat vs EM.... I bet you (*******s) don't even know...

    Because EM dug deep for a last hurrah and pushed Manny back. Manny cannot fight very well on the backfoot.

    Why did barrera beat EM, because Barrera can fight going forward, going backwards and anyway.

    The Point:

    A Young Morales, with strong legs, and relentlessness would beat pac by using the same Blue print he used to beat him, but more efefctively, and I have no doubt MAB would be able to use that print in his prime, when he was strongest.

    Pac is/was all wrong for Barerra. Although he probably would'nt be stopped here
