now im not saying that bobby pac is the strongest opponent, nor the best choice for barrera right now. but i was just thinkin...imagine MAB beating the shit out of manny's brother. that'd be great build-up for a rematch between the two.
your thoughts?
Problem is, MAB is quickly being exposed as a fake.
I used to really respect this man as the baddest little man since Roberto Duran. Now I think he is afraid of a smiling Flip. :boxing:
this is really a totally hypothetical thing. i honestly think this is a tactical move on marco's part. say he kicks the little brother's ass, hard. tears him apart. then fights up at 135, earns a title. i think at that point itd be easier to lure manny pac up to a weight where he couldnt be competitive.
No, I actually like the idea of Pacquiao-Barrera at 135 for a title. Gives Pacquiao a chance to be a 4 division titlist against an easy opponent. But shortly after a rematch, I'd ant to see Pacquiao back at 126. Barrera can't beat Pacquiao at his walkaround weight.

I hear what you're saying. Just like when Corrie Sanders beat Wlad, so when Vitali fought Corrie it was a very high anticipating match!!!
The only difference being that both Klitschko's were top 3 heavyweight contenders. On the other hand, Bobby Pacquiao has been ko'ed by Faphrakorb Rakkiatgym, not the best credential in the sport. In my estimation, this is perhaps the lowest thing I have seen in a long while in the sport of boxing. I clicked on the link to the news article that stated that Barrera was considering Pacquiao, only to see that he meant Bobby Pacquiao. That is truly an insult to the sport, as he is a Hall of Famer p4per who is seeking revenge, but against the man who brutalized him in 11 frankly uncompetitive rounds' little brother. It would be a different story if Bobby was a legitimate contender, but that is not the case. I think Barrera needs to stop embarrassing himself and adding asterisks to his legacy and fight Manny Pacquiao again. :boxing:
oh im not condoning the idea of a future HOF'er fightinga fringe contender, im just talking about the drama value.
