    What an amazing fight, I remember being on the edge of my feet and remember thinking..."This guy is the real deal".

    The body shot at 7:45 is vicious. Barerra's chin throughout this whole fight is crazy.

    McKinney was a tough dude but he ran into a future legend.

    Also, Roy Jones Jr is so pro McKinney it's funny. Listen to the commentary by him.
    that was a great fight by both. i love EM more but i've always liked MAB's boxing style over EM and JMM. MAB is the perfect mixture of a brawler and technician.

      Your mad because he made your boy Naz look like a transvestite and would have knocked out Khan had it not been for that fluke cut.



      Like I said, I'm biased but the reason I loved Barrera more is because he went from a brawler early in his career to a great counter puncher and boxer later on which really extended his career.
      Are you serious?

      Feeling all Mexican but marrying an Indian?

      GTFOH, you dumb copycat.

        Indian is Mexican, so is Mestizo. Don't talk about something you don't understand.

        Here is the future of Pakistani boxing, stick to cricket.

            I can honestly say I'll never fall in love with a man, regardless of any athletic achievements.

              One of my favorite fights ever. But not the fight that made me fall in love with Barerra. I'd say I gained a whole new respect for him during the Junior Jones rematch. He fought such a brilliant fight. I gave Jones the slight nod but right then, I knew Barrera was something special.

                Yes, even in the loss he adjusted in such an amazing way.

                I also loved the Morales fight vs Jr Jones, it was almost as if Morales , even though he hated Barrera, wanted to beat Jones for beating a fellow countryman.

                Damn I miss those guys.

                  I kinda agree.

                  I was impressed in the rematch in terms of his intangibles really, when looked at from the outside Jones wasn't a great or even close.

                    I forgot about that fight, I swear Jones’s arm length gave Barrera fits…

                      I bet your hero MAB would really dislike you. He would be like: "WTF, this p*to is talking all bravely about how "we" Mexians are such proud people and nobody of a different nationality should interfere with us, YET this fool marries outside his race?"

                      Who the **** are you trying to kid, sheep.

                      Even Oscar De la Hoya is more Mexican than you, .
