Who do you like better: Barrera or Morales?

[juancho]

Question: How hard was Barrera fighting in the last 6 rounds against Pacquiao in the rematch?

It looked to me like he had surrendered already, which is basically a glorified version of quitting.

my thoughts exactly , i think he just wanted to show he could last the fight

i chose barrera, ive always liked him better than morales.

on a side note, anybody else think that erik looks alittle bit like kafka

I probably already posted in this thread but for me it's Erik Morales! He's my third favorite ever behind Whitaker and Toney (not far behind at all though). He was the epitome of a prize fighter. Great skills, tons of heart and charisma. He gave the fans what they wanted.

[extracurRICular]

My take on how they fought:

Morales - Try or die. He tried, but couldn't get it done... and realized that he was done. He had already spent a lot of energy and was getting battered.

Barrera - Survive and thrive. Except the thriving never happened, so he just stayed back and survived.

I think you can make the argument that Barrera quit before Morales, but I guess it depends on how much value you place on literal quitting vs. figurative quitting.

That's the key...literal quitting is what I have a HUGE problem with...if you really can't go anymore the ref or your corner will put a stop to it...that's my take...

barerra is a warrior, but his excuse of forest fires in his loss to pacquiao exposed him like a little crying girl. up to now, he wouldnt credit pacquiao the win.

he is risking his health on the rematch i hope it wouldnt be that bad for him.

But it's ok for Pac to use every excuse in the book, right ?

And if Barrera wasn't unprepared the first time. Then why couldn't a Prime Pac KO a Old Barrera ?

Almost too close to call.

It is wierd actually. Overall I would say I got behind Erik more in his fights but when the two fought I was pulling for MAB.

[KILLA RIGHT]

Erick morales he is what every fighter should be....Great skill and crazy heart....My all time favorite mexican fighter and probably my favorite fighter of my life time....Just watch his last fight were he was in his prime and whooped on manny and was man enough to turn southpaw...There may never be another erik
