Jesus Chavez vs. Marco Antonio Barrera

Barrera by SD. I think that if it becomes a close fight, the judges will make Barrera a winner to set up a mega rematch with Pacquiao.

Cant count out chavez he gave morales a hard time with one hand so it should be a good fight.

Barrera will decision Chavez as easy as Morales did. maybe u need to watch that fight..it was hardly easy..i actually believe chavez would have beat him if he didnt have a hurt shoulder...i think chavez can beat barrera

Barrera will decision Chavez as easy as Morales did. Obviously you didn't see that fight. Chavez lost a decision fighting with one hand, but he still beat the hell out of Morales with it. Morales was too stupid to realize that Chavez stopped using his right hand after the 2nd round. Morales ain't won an "easy fight" in a coon's age.

i just found this bit of news, looks like it is goin down.... Unified junior lightweight champ Marco Antonio Barrera will make the leap to lightweight to challenge for Jesus Chavez's title on March 25 on HBO, Richard Schaefer of Golden Boy Promotions told ESPN.com. After several weeks of negotiations, "both fighters have agreed on the terms, so it is just a matter of getting the contracts signed," Schaefer said. The fight will be at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. Schaefer said the rumors that Barrera was insisting on making Chavez defend his belt at a catchweight below the lightweight limit of 135 pounds are not true. "Barrera is not asking for a catchweight like some people are saying," Schaefer said. "There is no language like that. This is a 135-pound fight." Schaefer said the HBO undercard would either feature junior lightweight titlist Jorge Barrios (44-2-1, 32 KOs), possibly in a mandatory defense against southpaw Janos Nagy (23-0, 14 KOs) of Hungary, or former junior middleweight titlist Kassim Ouma (22-2-1, 14 KOs). Barrios and Ouma both have interim bouts before March. Barrera (61-4, 42 KOs) unified 130-pound titles with a lopsided decision against Robbie Peden on Sept. 17. If Barrera defeats Chavez he would become the first Mexican fighter to win titles in four weight classes. He has won titles at 122, 126 and 130 pounds. Chavez (43-3, 30 KOs), a former junior lightweight champ, won his lightweight belt on the Barrera-Peden undercard. In a tragic outcome, Chavez stopped Leavander Johnson in the 11th round, and Johnson died a few days later from a brain injury suffered in the bout. the link: http://sports.espn.go.com/sports/boxing/columns/story?columnist=rafael_dan&id=2262853

so is this fight finally official?? ive been hearing rumors but nothing from barreras or chavez's camp. if they do fight i reckon barrera will win on points.

What weight are these two fighting at? for chavez's IBF 135 belt. if barerra wins, it'll be his title in his 4th weight class, a monumental feat.

135 blah blah

What weight are these two fighting at?

barrera would win via UD, he may even KO chavez late...

barerra can beat anyone damn near anyone around his weight class, including chavez.

Barrera will decision Chavez as easy as Morales did.

barrera will win EASILY!

maybe barera... chavez just killed someone..
