      You don't think MAB has a chance? If DLH is delusional, then Teddy Atlas and Manny Stewart must be, too, because both of them picked MAB to win this rematch.

      I've said it before and I'll say it again, the fight will be a replay of MAB - Juarez II with Pac playing the role of Juarez.

      DLH's vision may be cloudy, and his statements have no validity in my opinion. But why does everybody think Pacquiao is just gonna steamroll one of the best technical boxers around? Although it is true that Barrera needs to turn back the hands of time in order to win, I don't believe for one second that this is gonna be a walk in the park for Pacquiao. People base their decisions on hype far too often, and they neglect to analyze the track records of the fighters. I don't think you can ever count out a fighter with Barrera's heart, determination, and most of all, supreme technical skill.
      Exactly.

      MAB proved he could play the role of boxer against two very aggressive, come-forward fighters in Hamed and Juarez. I think Barrera pulls this one out just as he did against Juarez the second time around: by being smart!

      Look at how well MAB performed against JMM, a fighter whom many saw sweep rounds 3-12 against Manny.

        God I hope so but I don't think that will be the case.

          Nah.......Pac will still steamroll Barrera. Like he did the first time when Pac was 1 dimensional and Barrera was younger and quicker than what he is today.

            Why oscar is doing this :


            1. Restores balance since Arum is nuthugging on Pacquiao
            2. To fool people in Vegas to bet on Barrera while he has his groupies bet on Manny.

              Pacquiao have to be in high fever if he ever gets to be like Juarez. Speedwise theyre miles away.

                When he had the fever, he KOed Morales in 3 rounds. Pray that he doesn't need a sense of urgency. Those who paid for the PPV will only see 1 minute of MAB vs. Pac fight.

                  Probably a combination of both.

                    Morales was a broken man when he fought Pacquiao for the 3rd time. At that point he didn't think he could win anymore, MAB does actually think he can win, or else he wouldn't take this fight. Barrera is a very studious man, and if he's already seen a weakness he can exploit then Manny better watch out. I don't know but it doesn't seem like Pac fans actually know anything about boxing other than the fact that Pacquiao knocks people out.

                      Pacquiao is mostly an offensive fighter, that's what I think he was referring to. Have you not seen the way Barrera handles fighters that mostly come forward? If Freddy Roach doesn't anticipate some hard counters and a lot of lead left hooks then Pacquiao may be in for a long night. What I hate about the whole thing is that when MAB gives Manny a boxing lesson, many Filipinos are gonna come out saying that MAB is a ***** for not fighting him straight up, and for "running".
