    I had it 115-113 MAB. Thought it could have been more in favor of MAB. I do agree the HBO crew did there usual ass-kissing to the house guy.

    I just felt MAB was the aggressor, landed more shots and looked in control (ring generalship)

      Tracy, baby, I understand your point. Hitting behind the head is not good and could be very dangerous(G. McCllelan) but I don't think it was deliberately. It was more of a heat of the moment thing. Also, they hate each other and everyone knew there were going to be fireworks last night. Last but not least, I did not like it when Barrera slipped and Morales was about to jump on him to score a bogus knockdown and did not like when Morales acted the way he did at the end. Ok, if you you don't want to shake hands but if he did it would have shown enormous class, even if he was being a hypocrite.
      Okay, not deliberate? He held him and hit him fast and furious like 4 or 5 times and didnt stop til the ref made him...cant get much more deliberate than that.
      And, do you remember their first fight (or maybe the 2nd) when Erik thought he heard the bell when instead it was the 10
      sec. warning? Remember what Barrera did? He took full advantage of that and attacked him! And, how many times did the ref get onto Barrera for leaning on the back of Eriks neck?? Far as I know, that is one thing that causes slips and bogus knockdowns are given for that all the time. Everybody does that but Erik's not allowed?? Barrera tried to do it all night long, or was he just 'resting' on Morales' neck??
      I remember once when Barrea lost his footing a bit and Erik stood back (he considered attacking) and let him regain his balance, which I thought was ****** considering how he fouled him all night.

        And good karma to Chilly, Exciter and Mic for debating with me. None of my friends like boxing, so this is where I come to discuss it!

          I don't get it. Last night I saw an experienced and aging champion, who's commited half of his life for the sport fight with dignity an pride and overcame all odds when no one gave him a chance. I have N-O-T-H-I-N-G negative to say about Barrera. All this time, Morales has been flapping his mouth while MAB humbly remained focused and determined. That fight last night impressed me. I couldn't believe what I was seeing. I'm a fan of Erik's skills but that look of dismay on his face when they announced Barrera's name was priceless. Morales showed no class. From prefight to postfight, he was tasteless and disrespectfull. I'm glad someone put a beating on his ego.

            I've always felt like Morales was the humble one and Barrera the arrogant but this time, from the start, it was the other way.

              and youre quoting me because?? I never said he didnt look awesome Mooks..he did. Hell, he fought with an intensity and determination I havent seen him possess in a long time. For that I give him loads of credit. It was the fouls I didnt care for. Ok? I shouldnt be surprised you quoted me, should I?

                Barrera did what he had to do, if he'd lost that fight his career was over. the old Barrera came back to show us all he's not done, he overcame tremendous odds like m00ks says.

                  Fouls. i'm NOT SUGGESTING ANYONE COMMIT FOULS WHEN I SAY THIS, but think the fouls were part of Barrera's plan to make sure Morales never got comfortable, to keep him from focusing on the fight.
