        I'm really looking forward to it. I think alot of fans are overlooking it. Both guys have something to prove.

        I think if Rahim fights the way he did against Morales, he will outbox Freitas easily.

        What do you guys think?
        I still pick Popo in this one. Everybody is counting him out because of the corrales debackle but if you're counting for zahir to win over popo with the kind of performance he had in the morales fight, think again... morales isn't as quick as popo... popo has a lot more power than morales... result? Popo by KO... Morales connected with a straight right during their fight that almost dropped zahir... Popo maybe old, but he isn't out yet

          Both barrios and freitas took a beating in that fight. barrios was gaining the upper hand however going into the final rounds and i believe i had him up by a point or so. i thought it was gonna be over when he KD'ed Freitas again in the 11th. Then BOOM!!!

          That was one of the funniest knockouts I've ever seen, but BArrios had big time balls for trying to keep going.

              The Raheem we saw last was against a Morales that wasn't at a 100% or not the same fighter he was before. A young Morales would have picked Raheem a part. He can dance and move all he wants but he needs to get in to land a punch and that's where he'll be vulnerable against Popos power. I can see Raheem fighting a boring fight and try to win by points but Popo will draw him in and Knock him the F!@# out by 8.

                Barrios was unscathed going into the 12th round and Freitas pulled a miracle 1 punch knockout upset over him.
                did you see that fight? Barrios was a bloody mess from the mid-rounds on. Freitas was dropping bombs on him, and Barrios was firing back. He was so bloody he wiped his eye on the referee's shirt like 3 times

                  Raheem will outpoint Freitas to win a decision. If Rocky and Morales couldn't KO or TKO the kid why would Freitas?

                    He's quicker with his hands and overall movements than is Juarez and he's more powerful at 135 than both of them.

                    Freitas is a good boxer, but he may be beat to the punch repeatedly in this fight. It should be pretty good (tactically speaking) early until it heats up and both guys start landing more and more power shots.

                      Yeah you're right.

                      Bad choice of words, but what I meant was...he wasn't on ***** street and was like a machine that kept coming....untill Freitas short circuited him in the 12th.

                      He was giving Freitas all types of trouble as well.
