BUT BUT BUT Barrera is a bum doe!!!

[ShoulderRoll]

So if dominic wade or willie monroe went on to beat eubank jr...ggg would all of the sudden be that much better?

Yeah, pretty much. But that would never happen.

Also it's insulting to compare Monroe and Wade to a good Cuban school fighter like Barrera.

so berrera beat a mediocre fighter on a friday night that he was supposed to and won a couple rounds vs the sog HIMSELF last year and now hes a elite fighter?? must be that ggg sparring

Naw. Barrera left loud mouth Abel Sanchez.

He's training in Florida now with the guy that used to be John David Jackson's main assistant.

I said in a previous comment I was wrong I made a mistake

you stay wrong i heard tennis is much easier for fairweathers

[Larry the boss]

The Ring is De La Hoya's magazine and De La Hoya is Shabranskyy's promoter

He was ranked #5 by Transitional boxing

He was ranked #5 by Transitional boxing

**** Transitional boxing, I've always been saying that Barrera is underrated only because he was matched up against Ward.

[A.K]

He was ranked #5 by Transitional boxing

so was salka

[BrometheusBob.]

so was salka

I find that hard to believe


Can anyone confirm

[-Hyperion-]

Barrera has always been pretty good, he just matched up horribly vs Ward because he's slow as hell compared to him. Shabransky is garbage though, only racists like Freedom were hyping him

[Earl-Hickey]

It is funny how he was slammed just because Ward beat him...the same racist ass posters said the Euro fighter would dominate him..WHAT HAPPENED?

I agree ward is da best ever Larry. Dem damn rayciss ass crackers need to recognize

[-Kev-]

I have no idea why people thought this was really a gimme win for Shabranskyy, they were really sold on him for no reason. I think their predictions were more a case of wishful thinking, they wished Shabranskyy beat the breaks off Barrera I guess to **** on Ward's res

Now back to the fight, I had no prediction for this fight because I really had no idea who was going to win and I was not emotionally attatched to this fight like GGG fans were (For their own agenda). All I gotta say is Barrera got a very good, much needed win for his career and Shabranskyy is tough as hell for surviving that first round. Barrera hit him with 3 hard right hands to put him down and he still fought until 7 rounds, suffering 2 more KD's. We learned Barrera is a real good LHW, and Shabranskyy is very tough but needs to work on his defense.

Just putting this out there. ESPN had Shabranskyy ranked #8 going into tonight. They don't rank Barrera. Maybe they will after this fight.
