It's been said that when Barrera lost to Pacquiao he was not prepared due to his training camp being burned down by the raging fire's that were going on at the time in California. It forced him to come down from the high altitude in advance, which can spell disaster for a fighters stamina. Some have claimed he was also not motivated since Pacquiao was not widely known at the time. It's a bit interesting than in the rematch against Pacquiao, Barrera was way out of prime but he put up a much better fight, even winning a few exchanges.
It's also been said that when Morales lost to Raheem in the one-sided beatdown, just 6 months after Morales put on a boxing clinic against Pacquiao, that he was "not motivated" and didn't take Raheem as a serious threat for his "tune-up" before he re-matched Pacquiao. After losing to Raheem, Morales lost to Pacquiao and David Diaz.
In your opinion, which fighter, Barrera or Morales, was the LEAST prepared for their opponents?
