I just saw the fight, WTF is up with this Peden guy thinking he's Prince Naseem Hamed with his hands down like that. Barrera just kept waiting and counterpunching and never had the killer instinct to finish Peden.
I believe if Peden would've fought Morales or Pac, this would've been the results.
Morales KO5 Peden
Pac KO3 Peden
This is not a hate towards MAB, but thus a hate towards Peden. I was rooting for MAB but I expected a lot more from Peden.
you've got to be the biggest idiot on these boards. the question was what happened to pac's killer instinct in the marquez fight? since you don't care to address that let's address the scoring. scoring a round is a judgement call. e. steward had stated alot of judges won't score 10-6 rds. the only mistake was not dq'ing pac for hitting marquez when he was down (3rd kd). back to the scoring i gave pac a 10-6 rd 1 along w/rds 2 and i think 9 or 10. the remaing rds marquez dictated the fight and schooled your boy. score 114-111 marquez. if you really thought pac won why don't piss and moan about a marquez rematch like you do barrera? scared your boy will lose? get schooled again? or maybe that mysterious blister will rear it's ugly head again. you're a joke along with your observations.
ANOTHA IDIOT!
Alot of judges won't score 10-6 on 3 KDs??????!!!!! Fuck outa here moron. You jest typed a whole paragraph OF CRAP!
Hey dummy! Ever heard of the news? Where were you? Hiding in your ass? The judges made a "MISTAKE" in the scorecard. Dummy. lol!

Chicken is the right word when your taking years before you answer a challenge kid. That's common sense.
Coward is the right word when at the time of the fight, while you were face to face with PAC, with you're face getting rearranged (the fight ended with MAB's face so violet and unrecognizable he had to wear glasses coz he has both black eyes. lol!), telling the world that it was a fair fight and THAT YOU HAVE NO EXCUSES! Pls take note of the word NO EXCUSES DUMMY.
After several months, now that PAC is not in your face, you're saying it's an offnight? And you're insultig PAC by saying you don't fight leftovers? I would like COWARD MAB say that to PAC's face. But then again, that's the sign of cowards, they're only brave when you're not facing them. lol!
Get that Canadian? lol!
Was this post meant to say something?
You're saying that by admitting you "have no excuses", then you are a coward? That makes sense in what part of the world?
And, it wasn't several months. MAB said in the post-fight interview that he "didn't feel like himself" and that his training camp was "distracted".
Pac-Barrera II is lined up. Can Pac get there?
I might agree with somebody who says Peden was "never in the fight" with Barerra (like gayfist said). But, that doesn't mean that MAB shouldn't get credit for the win. If Peden had a bad night, or simply was outgunned by Barrera (for any reason) MAB deserves the credit for the win.
When Pac destroyed and embarassed MAB over 11 rounds, it could easily be said that MAB was "never in he fight" and that was the reason Pac won. I don't buy that though. Pac deserves the win and all the credit, just like MAB deserves the IBF Belt and the credit for beating Peden.
I agree that Pac's win over MAB is much bigger than MAB's win over Peden. The IBF Belt doesn't elevate MAB much, except that he is wise to create some bargaining power for his next fights. That's not stupid, exspecially when your workplace is as dangerous as the ring, you must make the money now and make lots of it.
Pac receives the highest praise from me for seeking the top-tier guys. It's so fucking rare that ny fighter has balls enough and skills enough to do this. Look at Warren in the UK, he won't even let his fighters take-on the best guys, while pacis outthere seeking the most dangerous fighters. What's not to like about that? He's giving boxing fans everything they want.
MAB, unlike Pac, is not giving fans the immediate rematch thast they want, but I'm not stressing, because it will come. All this talk of "chicken" and "sissy" is all bullshit and doesn't do anything to elevate your man Pac. The discussion right now should be Morales. If Pac gets through that rematch, then we know exactly where MAB will be. He'll be waiting for Pac. Any talk about "chicken" is ancient history and doesn't deserve much attention, really. Right now, Pac and MAB are lined-up for a rematch, if Pac can get there.
the peden fight was almost a give away... it was like peden was paid not to throw punches... well pac beat barrera right?
air_keng .... hey, what do care about my opinion? Just ignore me please. Just keep posting your witty stuff like this ...
that's where you are good at... you don't like barrera downplayed but you're downplaying pac too much... expect more barrera trash talking if you continue sucking his dick... sucker...
I mean who ever heard of fighting your own sparring partner. This is just too lame. Chicken MAB is just showing his true colors. That he is a PURE COWARD. Face PAC and be sure you have your hospital bills settled. lol! LOL! Ha! Ha!Ha! What I can say?:)
I thought Barrera fought very smart and displayed the skills that make him one of the biggest draws in the game. He fought and beat a Feather Champ, something Pac is yet to do.
Just a minor point: Whan Pacquiao beat Barrera, MAB was widely considered THE FEATHERWEIGHT KING-- "People's Featherweight Champ" and "Ring Magazine Featherweight Champ".
Another minor point: It seems to me that it is not too difficult to look good if your opponent barely throws a punch and offers his face up for you to hit instead of detering you with counter-punches.
No question that Barrera is one of the most skilled fighters ever to put on gloves, but to make the Peden fight one that showcased his enormous talents is like saying a brain surgeon disecting a frog is showing his gifts, or a rocket scientist releasing 4th of July fireworks is displaying his knowledge.
Peden was never in the fight. I don't really know why (may be because he is MAB's gym mate?].
Had he missed the fight, and someone placed a punching bag with gyrating suspensions, I suppose not too many would have noticed Peden's absence.

The fact is without killer instincts, you will fall against elite fighters. PAC has killer instincts and you gotta admit he's one of the best finishers ever. I have yet to see an opponent get free once PAC unloads (oh, I forgot, he unloads just about every second, every round, lol!).
It's alright and fine when a boxer without killer instincts fight wussies like Peden. The problem is, you'll get your head torn off if you go up against PAC.
It was a bad fight. Peden just acted the complete braggart and MAB failed to KO him. Boring fight.
what happened to that killer instinct in the marquez fight? also, as a boxing fan i enjoyed the clinic barrera put on peden.
it depends if peden act the way he fights barera..really stupid,unproffesional.he didn;t even change his plan in the mid round even on the last round.what the hell he's thinking...he's fighting a champion!and act like that..damn you peden...
pacman may or may not ko.
morales mid round.
Who cares who kos who first!!
Hagler didn't ko Duran, Hearns did in 2 rounds!
Hagler KTFO hearns
It's not like whoever KOs a person first is better!
I didn't say Morales and Pac are better than MAB. I'm just saying Barrera should've been man enough to give excitement to crowd and finished off Peden. Peden looks very stoppable and passive, a world class fighter should've ended it with a bang.
Obviously, you're smart ass comments never stops amusing me. Oh too bad, you just got banned LOL.
