    Who would win at 122 and at 126
    I like Manny Pacquiaos speedy exciting style but I think a prime Barrera is unstoppable, my opinion though. I take a prime Barrera by Decision :bbb

    Barrera does not have the style to beat PAC..

    Prime Morales KILLS Pacquiao... and JMM will always be a technical chess match depending on which Style Pac uses.

    So you're implying Barrera wasn't prime?

    I think he means a more "focus" MAB? In other words Barrera at his best.

    Barerra would crush Pacquiao. When has Pacquiao ever win a fantasy fight. PAC already beat Barerra but in a fantasy fight PAC would still get crush.

    I don't think any version of Barrera beats Pac, but I do believe it won't be ass easy as thier first fight.

    Pac just has the style to beat Barrera, but it is a toss up. It wouldn't be an easy fight like the original fight. Much more competitive fight.

    It would be more competitive than their first 2 fights but Pac wins regardless...most likely by stoppage

    Pacquaio is all wrong for Barrera. That said I favour a prime Morales over this Pacquaio and I favour Barrera over that Morales.

    If Peak Barrera had all the tools that Morales had, such as a Marquez blueprint and having Pac move up etc, he could eek out a decision, Pac at that stage is literally a gungho typhoon and bad style matchup for Barrera. He was prime in 03, but absolute peak in 01

    That whole saga still makes me believe JMM was the best of the 3 mexicans

    I think Marquez was too, but I think he loses to a prime Barrera.

    It's all a bit :nut

    Jose Luis Castillo deserves a mention too.
