Erik Morales
Marco Antonio Barrera

Dude are you serious that you could say Morales was at his peak in the first fight??

Barrera had like 60 fights already when he fought Pac.

LoL, so funny how this had nothing to do with the topic, but I see it makes you feel uncomfortable inside when talking about Margacheato. If you must know, Barrera won like 5 straight after losing to Manny the first time. But I don't care, I'm not filipino. He's just my favorite fighter. His accomplishments speak for themselves, no matter how hard you try to degrade them, there's no way you can. He's made boxing history.

That man you call a cheater actually fought good boxers in their prime.
After all the wars Barrera was in, you expect him to be the same?? I didn't ask if you're filipino. His accomplishments are overrated, but he is fun to watch, that I don't deny.

Well at least Pacquiao beats these so called "old fighters" convincingly unlike Margarito who couldn't get past a 37 year old.

[Gatti9783]

I'm gonna say yes. Against Mosley, Maragrito looked like what Sylvester Stallone was beating on in the meat factory in Rocky. The swaying meat may have had an edge in defensive skills though.

Convincingly?? If I remember correctly, lot of people thought Marquez won, even Filipinos. Yes, the 37 year old Marquez.

What exactly is being "past his prime".

I guess MAB was already past his prime because he got beat by Junior Jones twice, I mean, he got ktfo worse than what PAC did to him. So, is it safe to say that when MAB faced Erika the first time he was already past it?

Afterall, it seems to me that the deciding factor for you as far as gauging a fighter if he's past it or not is getting annihilated. Well, Barrera got r*ped by Junior Jones, does that make him past his prime.

And as far as Erika is concerned, before he fought PAC the first time, his only losses were to Marco. And if you think about it, when he beat PAC, the nasty cut PAC suffered had alot to do with Erika's win, he was basically fighting a one-eyed fighter, to me that's being worse than being "past his prime". I mean, PAC literally fought w/ one eye after the 5th f**kin' round!

I mean, its not like Erika was getting torched by a bunch of journeymen. He got beat by all-time greats, being in tough fights and getting your @ss kicked by PAC will take alot out of a fighter. Zahir Raheem is a f**kin' world-class fighter, the problem with him was he lacked balls, when he couldn't just cruise through a fight by boxing he basically ran or hugged .

Zahir was about as talented a fighter as we're gonna see, but he was like a NAZ, he didn't have the mindset of a true champion. A fighter will never achieve greatness if he doesn't like to get hit, I don't care how talented you are. He'll look great against 80% of his competition.

Zahir Raheem is just a tough stylistic matchup against any version of Erika. We all know that Erika never had the reputation for being a speedster.

Deal with it, PAC is greater than Erika and MAB. Even in their "so-called prime years" their accomplishments doesn't even compare to what PAC has done already!
