    Outpointed? If Morales is content with taking a close decision, I overestimated his heart.

      I believe Morales is more gifted in talent than Barrera but marco is the fighter as he has more heart. So much more desire and will power that makes up for it. It is evident that in the three fight with Barrera Morales at times would lower his head in the corner and when they exchanged blows Barrera usually came off on top. Morales had more power but Barrera had so much more want.

        He was the moreactive of the two. I dont think he was contentted witha decision but in my eyes, he DID outpoint him. What fuels Morales isn't his heart, it's his pride.

            How could Barrera have ran the first six rounds in the second fight when he was too busy making Morales miss and hitting him in return. I think people penalized Barrera for not coming out swinging in the second fight. He boxed well in the first six rounds and went toe to toe in the last six.

              just my opinion but i reckon that morales is the better fighter but for some reason barerra seems to have his number.
              barerra always performs better against morales than he does anybody else!
              morales is still one of the best fighters out there and imo will be considered the bigger legend because of his all action style!

                Yah Morales missed, but he also connected. You guys talk like he took Morales to school or something in the rounds he boxed. He wasn't active period. It's hard to give him rounds like that.

                  Reason why Barerra does great againts Morales, is that he haas great desire and heart. In thier fights, Morales looks like teh cleaner moretechnically sound while Barrera just gets in your face which works for him so I wont knack that.

                    Morales missed more than he connected in those first six rounds. I didn't say Barrera took him to school but he did outbox Morales.

                      IMO
                      barrera won the first
                      morales the second
                      but the third shoulve been a draw
                      there is only 2 rounds in my mind that could be questioned
                      the first and the ninth
                      most ppl say barrera won the first, but i really think morales won the ninth, and barrera punched morales in the back of the head twice and i think he should've been deducted a point, barrera is always like that.
                      the judge who had it 115-114 is an idiot. it should be 114-114
                      in a championship fight, you shoudln't give a one point win, or any round even. especially the 11th, i felt morales clearly won that round
