    PAC is quicker, faster, has more stamina, faster handspeed, stronger punches and that southpaw stance is a nightmare for any slugger.

    This is probably the main reason why Barrera has been avoiding PAC all these years, because he knows he can't win.
    i here what ya sayin bro but its like barrera has never ducked a challenge before and this for me is his biggest challenge out there in pacman. i honestly dont think barrea is scared i mean he lost to junior jones by KO and came right back to fight him, he lost to morales and fought him 2 more times after that so i dont think barrera is scared, i just think its more of mental thing. Barerra got destroyed that night he fought pacman, a lot of people had barrera near the top of the P4P list, he was seen as the king of the featherweights at 126lbs and pacman just comes along and phycologically opened up that division with his one sided beatin of barrera.

    thats the ONLY fight ive seen barrera not want to fight, from round 8 or 9, its like he knew he couldnt win the fight, pacman took his heart that day. the thing is, i honestly think barrera has a chance to beat pacman, i mean if you watch the first 2 rounds of their fight, barrera had a good game plan, kept pacman on the outside with his jabs and countered with his right hand, after he got knocked down in the 3rd round he just got more cautious, its like he didnt wanna risk gettin knocked down again.

    even if barrera loses a rematch to pacquiao, i think he will get more respect because he has a least tried to avenge it, rather than avoiding him.
