its been almost a decade since their massively epic first fight... at this point in time, after collecting belts, accomplishments & names in their great careers, who do u think is/was greater?
personally i like erik waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay more than asshole barrera, but i could give them a draw, erik has more substance to his wins, barrera had more flash and names.....
still, **** it, its erik....
:lol1: I can respect that. We all have our own reasons. :fing02:
never there has been a rivalry in this sport where the "greater" one is decided on personal preference even during @ the end of their careers...
what a rivalry...
For real.
I'd love to see them front row at a fight one day, sitting next to one another.

It's a tough call.
Erik beat Junior Jones, who beat Barrera twice. And he beat Manny, who beat Barrera twice.
But Erik also lost to Manny twice, and lost to Barrera twice.
It really boils down to personal preference, and in that case ; I always pick Marco Antonio.
But "El Terrible" also holds a special place in my boxing heart as well.
Anyone know if they've ever made amends or not? I've only heard speculation and hearsay.

I prefer Morales and think he did more. But yeah styles make fights and i think Barrera would always win more against Morales than Morales would over Barrera (as we have already seen).
Fairly even. I think Morales was more devasting in his prime and holds and excellent win over Manny as well as his host of other great victories. I think Barerra just had the style to beat him (which he did really 3 times).
erik morales remains the only guy to officially beat manny pacquiao @ the elite level...
