  • Did Barrera had just a bad night?

    Physical conditioning is a must for any boxer. Because to win, a boxer must sustain his energy against his opponent. Most of the time, if both fighters possess same level of skills, their conditioning plays a great role in winning and that a more conditioned fighter prevails over a less-conditioned one. Barrera is one example. He didn't get the chance of training to the fullest because of an incident (a fire that had happened during his training at Big Bear, California). Pacquiao, on the other hand, had prepared well for the fight. His conditioning was awesome and he surprised Barrera with a lot of quickness and power. He stopped Barrera in the 11th round of that fight.

    Conditioning was maybe one of the factors why Barrera had been beaten badly. Barrera's camp said it was focus, too (they said he was disturbed by the news - his brain operation was made known to the public prior to the time of the fight with pacquiao). So, is it just alright for Barrera to say he had just a bad night? Your comments on this.

    Barrera was owened that night against Pac. But still after watching that third fight with Morales I cant count out Barrera because I thought Morales was gonna whoop him pretty bad snd we all know the show MAB put on.

    Mabey with a new mindset and better conditioning he can make things much closer and win the rematch.

      I think Barrera and Morales had a very good shot at beating Pacquiao, until they went and killed each other. Now they are both pretty much finished.

        I dont think it was as much about a bad night as it was about him being completely overwhelmed by pac. I dont think he expected the onslaught of punches that Pac threw at him and it really threw him. He really never had a chance to make any adjustments either...a rematch will probably be a little different if he can handle Pacs speed and power.

            I think Barrera had an OK night against Hamed. It wasn't very hard to see what Hamed was gonna do. Barrera's best nights were Morales I and III. Pacquiao has many great fights in the future, provided he comes in shape.

              ok
              with mab-morales 1
              maybe
              but that was still a pretty close one
              and theres was no question that he completely dominated hamed
              ya its true it wasnt hard to see hamed plan
              but up until then
              no one could do anything to stop him

              mab-morales 3
              def not his best
              it was good
              but he was fighten for dear life near then end

              pac def has more fights left in him
              and he should do fine
              but i just dont think hell ever look like that again while fighten a top guy

                  I don't see how Augie Sanchez and Cesar Soto not being able to stop The Prince meant anything.
