    Barrera-Morales I Round III Overrated?

    Do you think this round was really overrated? Jim Lampley said this was like Bowe-Holyfield round 10, but I didn't see nearly as much damage as was stated. Barrera was in a defensive posture, clearly trying to pick off punches as they came in and then he caught Morales with a big shot he didn't see and Morales was steadying the ship. The only time in the fight that I saw Morales really in trouble was in the 10th at the end when he overextended on that right hand and got caught with a counter 1-2-3 that sent him into the ropes. Do you think this round is overrated by history?
