''I always liked the way Salvador Sanchez fought. His aggressiveness. All the things he did in a fight, how he boxed and handled himself. I'd like to be as good as he was-make my best effort, and make the Mexican people proud of me''. Marco Antonio Barrera (1993) ''My brother liked to fight on the streets, and he used to say to me, ''Fight that Kid'' And I would cry because I didn't want to. I didn't like to fight on the street because I was nervous and there were no rules. I was more confident in my boxing ability than my street fighting ability'' Marco Antonio Barrera (1995) ''You can be a lawyer your whole life. You can only be a world boxing champion a few years'' (1996) Barrera explaining his decision to put his law career on hold ''If I had Don King as my promoter, I probaly would of won'' Barrera after his first fight with Erick Morales ''I stopped throwing punchers in the fifth and 10th because my stomach was cramping up slightly. I ate a chocolate dessert after my meal before the fight and I think it affected me a little. But I still won'' Barrera a few weeks after the 2rd Morales fight.
