do i smell barrera vs morales in 2009 ????

Barrera would stop Morales in a 4th fight. What people don't realize is that Morales was shot and weight-drained in his last fights and Barrera was NEITHER. MAB was just a little faded. Competitive UD losses to Pacquiao and Marquez and everyone is saying how shot he is. He looked fine in both fights and clearly still has some of his ability in the tank. He'll beat Kobori for the lightweight title. Thought David Diaz is a good fighter, a prime El Terrible would tear through him in only several rounds.

barrera is my favourite fighter of all time, and i wish he would just retire. he has had an amazing career, has probably exceeded all his goals in boxing, is a legend and is going into the hall of fame. there is no reason for him to continue fighting, the same goes for morales as well.

I don't think so and I certainly hope not.

i do agree, it should not happen at all, it's sad; but like i said i will support morales not barrera

you got it, their name is the only thing that stands-out at this point, it's sad but i'll support morales all day.... Hey, they are two of my favorite fighters of all-time. Still, I know when enough is enough and we've seen enough. Same with Hopkins.

Even tho Morales is one of my favorite fighters and i think he should kick the shit out of Barrera, i dont think they should let this fight happen. They are both way past their primes and even tho Morales had a decent fight with Diaz, i dont want to see him hurt in the long run

If it happens expect the IBO to sanction it as a "world title." you got it, their name is the only thing that stands-out at this point, it's sad but i'll support morales all day....

Dude, have you seen what Morales looks like now? There's no way he'll be back at a "healthy" 130-135lbs. I think it's a real far stretch yeah i know, just a thought though, morales and vargas can team-up

as a huge fan of both please dont let this fight happen! you guys both had your times and represented us proudly and greatly but its time to retire and stay that way...

If it happens expect the IBO to sanction it as a "world title." Could be Ring's people champ!:boxing:

i think if they both had successful comebacks, its possible, i dont see them doing it just to get some money though, they both have a string of losses and to be honest fighting each other wouldnt really get them anywhere, just another pay day thats all. id say if they each managed to get a belt, that would make it interesting.

well i mean barrera having to sign w/ D-king and morales said he will return in 2009 i do think this might be a possiblity, it will sell, it won't be as good but it will sell....thoughts Dude, have you seen what Morales looks like now? There's no way he'll be back at a "healthy" 130-135lbs. I think it's a real far stretch

yeah but often when both fighters are past it, it can still make for a good fight. Yeah, I think they're still evenly match.

:frown: chill they both lost it there hanging on to long need to retire yeah but often when both fighters are past it, it can still make for a good fight.

:frown: chill they both lost it there hanging on to long need to retire

last i saw el terrible, he looked like a short ass cruiser lmao, but i'll tell i'll buy it..... morales vs barrera IV

I doubt that Morales can even make 135!
