the reason MAB is fighting Chavez........

chavez is not dangerous for killing johnson, i saw that fight and i honestly believed johnson was in trouble even bfore the bell rang,

Sori for the caps, im not good at typin and at the time i was makin the thread i was in a hurry/again sorry

WHAT DO U GUYS THINK ABOUT THIS...CERTAINLY DOWN THE ROAD, MAB WANTS TO FIGHT PAC, HE'S JUST TOO PROUD TO JUST LET THE RECORD AND HISTORY BE AS IT IS TODAY.HE'LL FOREVER BE CALLED CHICKEN IF HE WON'T FIGHT PAC BEFORE HE HANG UP HIS GLOVES FOR GOOD.MAB KNOWS THAT. BUT SHOULD IT HAPPEN, AND DEFINITELY IT WILL, UNLESS FATES WILL INTERVENE,THIS I BELIEVE IS HIS, AND HIS THINK TANKS ARE PLANNIN. HE IS NOT FIGHTIN PAC NOW, BECAUSE OF ALL THE CONFIDENCE HE HAS RIGHT NOW.IT'S MUCH TOO DANGEROUS FOR HIM.MOREOVER, HE IS VERY COMFORTABLE WITH THE WEIGHT THAT HE IS IN AS OF THE MOMENT,130 lbs. NOW,HE IS FIGHTIN CHAVEZ AT A MUCH HIGHER WEIGHT,135 lbs.IF HE BEATS CHAVEZ,HE'LL PROBABLY GOIN TO CALL OUT PAC TO FIGHT HIM AT THE SAME WEIGHT,135 lbs.LOGICAL, SINCE HE IS GOIN TO HOLD ONE PART OF THE LIGHTWEIGHT CHAMPION.AND HE IS GOIN TO DEFEND IT AGAINST PAC. THE DILEMA AGAINST PAC HERE IS THIS, SHOULD HE DECIDES TO FIGHT MAB AT 135 lbs., IT WILL BE DANGEROUS FOR PAC,CONSIDERING THAT ONE OF HIS ADVANTAGES AGAINST MAB IS HIS SPEED.IT MAY BE AFFECTED BY THE SUDDEN CHANGE IN WEIGHT. CLEARLY MAB WILL HAVE AN ADVANTAGE AGAINST PAC IN SUCH A SCENARIO.SO THE MOST LOGICAL THING FOR PAC TO DO IS TO DECLINE A FIGHT WITH MAB AT 135 LBS.IF TODAY HE IS NOT FIGHTING MORALES AT 132 LBS., WHY WOULD HE RISK A FIGHT WITH MAB AT 135lbs.CERTAINLY PAC WONT RISK A FIGHT AT THAT WEIGHT.SO WHO WILL BE CALLED CHICKEN NOW.HISTORY WILL WRITE IT OFF LIKE THIS, "MAB WAS CHALLEGIN PAC BUT HE DECLINE A SECOND FIGHT WITH HIM." NOW SHOULD MAB LOSES TO CHAVEZ, HE WILL HAVE ALL THE EXCUSES IN THE WORLD TO LOSE TO HIM.HE IS MUCH BIGGER. THEN IF HE DECIDES TO FIGHT PAC AFTER THE LOSS, GOIN DOWN TO 130 lbs AND HE EVENTUALLY LOSES TO PAC, HE WILL BE IN THE PRECARIOUS SITUATION THAT MORALES IS IN NOW.SUDDEN DROP OF WEIGHT, TIRED OF ALL THE BATTLES, OLD AGE, TO NAME A FEW, WOULD DEFINITELY BE AVAILABLE REASONS FOR HIM.NOT THAT PAC WAS A BETTER FIGHTER THAN HIM. A WIN OR LOSS TO CHAVEZ WILL DEFINITELY BE BENEFICIAL TO THE CAREER AND LEGACY OF MAB..I MEAN WITH REGARD TO HIS EVENTUAL FIGHT WITH PAC....WHAT DO U THINK???BY THE WAY,,,, FILIPINO AKO!!!!! stop shouting.

I think MAB will wear JC down with body shots and counters. MAB is more of a boxer then he used to be b/c he wants to lengthen his career as much as he can. I have all the confidence in the world that MAB will fight pac man again. Im thinking a fight with pac will be his last, he's not getting any younger, but first he must get passed the tough JC.

Since the Morales/Pacquiao fight I've gone close to broke...only having 50 million plus the 2 mil you see out here. I'd be happy to put 50 mil down on this fight with you, although I don't like betting against Barrera unless he's fighting Morales or Pacquiao. But yeah i'll throw 50 mil on it...sound good? Chavez must win by KO/TKO/UD for me, Barrera by KO/TKO/UD for you OK, except I just found out that I only have like 19,000 points. So do we leave it at 19000? Also, you will have to explain me what exactly are those points for.

I'd be glad to bet some points against you (or anyone, for that matter) on this fight. Not that I know what the hell do those points mean, anyway. I win only if MAB beats Chavez by KO, TKO or UD (with at least a 4 point margin). Agree?

The bad thing about Chavez for Barrera is Chavez' energy level. He has good stamina and brings a high level of energy to the table when he fights. This is much like Pacquiao...who wouldn't let Marco coast when he wanted to at all. I just don't see Marco doing enough damage to Jesus to slow his attack down later in the fight. I could be very wrong though because Marco has proven that he's as dangerous as ever with his back against the wall. Good action fight no matter how you slice it.

wow! I'm planning to post like this ^_^ well said. i agree 100% thats why i ranked him #2 in my p4p list. hehehe! (mab fans won't touch this issue *mouth zipped) I'm planning on laughing at idiots that get banned... wait for it............... hahaha. You=banned. MAB hopefully will fight Pac if he beats Chavez.

I think that MAB can take a win over JC. If JC fights like he did with Johnson, MAB can easily counter him because he was throwing wide range punches. I don't think it would be a walk in the park though, because Morales did okay with him eventhough he fought him with one arm after the six round! JC is a tough dude and 135 can be an issue for MAB.

i see a greater pocket if MAB fight PAC. i can't find any other reason aside from eluding pac for MAB. But between MAB and Chavez, i think MAB would have to adjust due to weight difference. i haven't seen MAB fight at 135 before, i think chavez has a greater edge on this aspect.

didnt morales handle chavez easly at 130? unless 135 is to much wiehgt for the shorter MAB i dont see why he wouldnt whoop up chavez, or was 130 to much drianing for chaves when he fought morales, either way MAB beats chavez and pac, and anyone else to

Morales never stopped Chavez. Chavez injured his shoulder and fought most of the 12 round bout with one arm. He had Morales in serious trouble in the first round and hurt himself a few rounds later. Chavez looks very strong at 135, I think way too big for Barrera- who admits that 130 is already too big for his frame. Agreed ecept for bold. I wouldn't call that "serious" trouble, but he hurt him.

Killing a guy doesn't really make it more dangerous. Many C level fighter have killed people in the ring before, it's a thing that we don't like seeing, but this happens in boxing from time to time. I'm not calling Chavez a C level fighter, I think he's an A class fighter. But he was stopped by Mayweather & Morales. I think Barrera is a better boxer then Morales & I don't see Barrera losing to Chavez. But I do see Barrera having problems with Pac style. This is the easier fight for Barrera.

Barrera will beat Chavez quite handily. Mark my words. Chavez is a good fighter, but right now MAB is on a different level. He's as close to his prime as I've ever seen him. He'll beat Jesus, and if Pac beats Morales the third time, the rematch is gonna be gigantic. We'd be talking about one of the biggest fights in the lower weights in the history of the sport, moneywise. I don't think anyone will EVER beat Chavez handily...outside of what Mayweather did to him. even in the Mayweather bout, chavez was very game all night and made it difficult for Floyd to execute the way he wanted to. Also, Barrera has looked good against Peden and Fana because they are extremely limited fighters. The win over Morales was good in their thrid bout, but that was a long time ago. Marco will have a lot of trouble with Jesus. I would like to see him get by Chavez however, just to further fuel a Pacquiao rematch. Conversely, if Erik and Manny get it on for a third time I hope Erik beats Manny...although there isn't much basis to say he would at this point.

Chavez is as tough an 130/135 fighter as you are going to find. Overall, he is a stronger opponent than is Pacquiao, although Manny hits harder and is obviously more skilled. Still it's a very tough fight for Barrera. Chavez is coming off two good wins and he looks pretty solid at 135. I favor him to beat Marco just on size and the fact that Marco has been fighting C level fighters alone. I'm also in the grouping that believes Pacquiao would beat Barrera should they fight again...but that shouldn't stop them from fighting anyway. It's just a bad style matchup for Marco. I agree on pretty much eberything. Chavez should be REALLY tough fo Barrera.
