Are there any non Marg supporters that would be happy if Pac lost to him?

The Morales trilogy concluded after the Pac fight. So Barrera didn't have 3 wars with Morales just yet.
He totally schooled Hamed after getting KTFO by Junior Jones. Getting KTFO doesn't mean you're not in your prime...
Just look at what he did after the Junior Jones fight.
Going into the Pac fight he totally dominated Mi Vida Loca who was the IBF champ and got stripped cuz he decided to fight Barrera. Barrera KO'd a shot Kevin Kelly sandwiched in the Tapia and Pac fight.
Barrera was in his prime. No doubt about it. Very highly touted at the time.
After the Pac fight Barrera moved UP to a new division concluded a trilogy with Morales, won a title in the new division, unified the titles in the new division and had a winning streak in the new division until he fought JMM. Who Barrera was competitive with.
So yes the first Barrera was in his prime the rematch not so much.Comment

He fought EM after Packy? I could've sworn that was before, but it sounds like you're on top of your game today so I won't front.The Morales trilogy concluded after the Pac fight. So Barrera didn't have 3 wars with Morales just yet.

But to your statement about being k.o'd not equaling shotness. I have 2 words for you.

Well A LOT of people on Boxingscene picked Cotto to stop him. After the fight, some Cotto fans didn't come back to the site for 3-4 months, not calling out any names either. Some of their excuses was "I was on Vacation" and no I ain't even bull****tin'
