    You're honestly suggesting that Pacquiao deliberately took it to a points victory because he didn't want to hurt Barrera? I had heard about this legendary Pac nuthugging before but I never believed it until now.

      I didn't say that.

      There's more than 1 way to win a fight dude.

      Also did you read MAB quote? Or you want me to post it in caps.

        This is what you said:

        In round 12 when MAB slipped PAC could have murdered him right then and there. Out of balance, out of position and 100% open. A perfect killing target.

        Yet PAC even backed-off! What honor! What a gentleman!
        Just to clear that up you said that Pac could have "murdered" Barrera in round 12 but decided to be a "gentleman" and not end the fight in a KO.

          I said he could have murdered Barrera.

          So?

          It was clear he backed-off when MAB was off-balance. Even our commentators noticed it well. Any other fighter of lesser class would have attacked MAB.

          But not PAC.

          We are too gentlemanly for that.

          Get the point?

          Or you want me to write you a novel?

          Also since you have poor eyesight I'll post MAB's words in full caps for your reading pleasure.

          "I'M VERY HAPPY I DIDN'T GET KNOCKED OUT BY PAC".

          Is that clear enough for you?

            Barrera may have been happy not to have been knocked out but there is no way a pro fighter backs off his opponent when he has him in trouble, just to be nice. It's not his job to be nice, that's the referee's job.

            "We are too gentlemanly for that"

            Do you realise how idiotic this sounds?

              What lesson? A lesson how to cheat? It was pacman who gave lesson to barrera, that is to being very sport for not taking advantage of barrera when barrera slip, pacman waited till barrera get on his feet. I would have saluted barrera for his career if not of that dirty tactics he did in the 11th round, what a lousy opponent and a very bad end of his career.

                  Barrera/McKinney- first ever Boxing After Dark fight, what a start to a memorable series, what an amazing fight, definitely my favorite Barrera fight and memory.

                    The Morales trilogy, he will definitely be missed. I can't wait to see him in the HOF.
