    Marquez vs. Barrera

    Does anyone think this is one of the best fights of the decade. The amount of skill on display is something you don't see anymore. Two world class fighters and the fight was pretty close but I thought Marquez just edged it. I thought Barrera did good in the earlier rounds with Marquez taking over later on. Up there with their best fights.

    Funny how this is considered a good fight for Marquez yet when Pacquiao beat Barerra the first time, Barrera was already "past it"

      People easily forgot that when Pacquiao beat Barrera the first time, that version of Barrera managed to beat Morales the second time. And achieve 5 more world title wins and a unification.

      Pac vs Barrera 1 happened in '03
      Barrera vs Morales 3 happened in '04

            considering he would later beat Morales in their rubber match, and that Morales would later beat Pac, he was still in really good form.

              There was an opportunity, but JMM ducked Morales. Morales would have beaten the hell out of JMM.

              I said he was past it, not shot to ribbons.

                - -Balco Juan wouldn't even stay in Mexico if Morales was there ready to fight.

                  And look how easy Floyd beat them, lucky they didn't fight May at 130-135 he would have stopped all 4 instead he settled for 2 cruise control wins.

                    froid has nothing to do with this. Your here hyping him up despite no one mentioning him and yet if someone hated on him you'd be "hE liVeS in Yo hEad reNt free". Loser.
