    Barrera just felt like he could outbox the kid.

    Come on bernie... please ! :rofl

    You call me an EMtard... which I dont mind, Im proud to be a Morales fan... but that shot was as intentional a cheap shot as Barrera has ever thrown - & he has thrown A LOT.

    As much as Marco is your fav fighter, you must admit he is extremely dirty when things are not going his way, thats one of the main reasons I have no time for him, if your gonna box then box, leave the lowdown **** for street fighting.

    Seriously, not bullshitting here. I'm the first to admit that if MAB gets frustrated he can get nasty in there, but I think this is a bum rap. His arm was moving AS Steele came lunging and the punch was already turning over when Steele stuck his hand in. If Steele had come in with whole body like he's supposed to he would have stopped the punch, but he just kind of edged his hand in between them, which I doubt MAB even felt since he and Manny were chest to chest.

    yeah. steele had one arm in between the fighters when MAB pulled the trigger and on MAB's angle won't be able to see that. BUT, steele yelled STOP as soon as the fighters got tied up. i think it's loud enough for MAB to hear.

    I`ll give you the benefit of the doubt & I wont go on about it, Ive only seen the fight about 3 times, I have it on video tho.
    The impression I got was that it was deliberate but that could be because as you say, MAB has did it a few times before.
    Next time I watch the fight I`ll keep an eye out for that one, I think it was rd 11 (possibly 10)

    Ps. deliberate or not... Pac looked to have a touch of the Zab Judah about him when it connected, he was all over the place for a few seconds :lol:

    so max kellerman saying he thought jmm beat pac both times means he have it at least 8-4 for jmm the 2nd time around?

    don't twist it around. i have no problem if somebody would score it for jmm but not the way you have scored it. 9-3 and 8-4? :patsch even the other hardcore jmm fans doesn't have scorecards as lopsided as that. maybe uliuli, you and pedro fernandez. lol :lol:

    and that seems your favorite kellerman clip. why because he says that jmm is the greatest featherweight of this era? also kellerman says morales relentlessly ducked marquez. :patsch what a joke!!!
