    Barrera also has enough heart and drive that he never reached the "too many wars" thing by 30 years old.

    I think Barrera is the biggest living legend we have now.

    Sorry for being a bit off topic.
    I agree, but I think it's pretty obvious that he's accomplished more than Morales, right?

        Nope, he's not overrated. He fought and beat everyone they put in front of him, which is all you can ask. He "owned" his era, and he did it by fighting, not shucking and jiving or leading with his face.....

          JCC is 1/2 in my mind. When he fought some real fighters, he got beat. But that left hook to the body was no ****ing joke. I'm going to say it again, I see R. Steele on the street, his head is going to get busted. No debt's involved. No Pelican Bay ****. I'm going to molliwop that ass on G.P.

                Chavez is only overrated by people who call him the best of all-time and the like. He really was a special fighter though...nobody will ever approach that record he amassed again.

                Oh and Morales' career > Barrera's.

                  The topic creator said "slightly better than morales". So I thought I would give a little more credit to Barrera.

                      JCC beat up some Taxi drivers. Don King paved the road.
                      Pea, Oscar, Junior, all put a whoooping on that. My bad.
