Rungvisai KO Gonzalez > Pac KO Barrera

[BrometheusBob.]

I don't know if I'm willing to say that necessarily but it was a very big win no doubt

Rungvisai is going to be on everyone's p4p list that originally snubbed him

[WesternChamp]

Already predicting his downfall, why? Pac was even less skilled, he was a one handed fighter, could throw nothing but the one two over and over again, and his defense was even more suspect. The difference to me is HBO was already done milking Barrera at the time, it was still prime juicing time for Gonzalez.

Rungvisai just dispatched one of there last contract fighters.

pac was a one handed fighter but pac showed potential for greatness. his explosiveness, speed, and he actually have some movements!! this dude rungvisai just comes forward and depend on his straight to win fights. these styles dont last long. aint no hating, just stating facts.

[FinitoxDinamita]

People only note Rungvisai's lack of defense and head availability but discard everything else that allowed him to beat Roman. Sure he has power, determination/heart and chin but God Damn look at his timing. Sure he is slow af, but his timing and power was what put Roman out of commission.

Good observation

[satiev1]

Barrera is a much better fighter than gonzalez skill wise so no.

[Strategic1]

I respect superflyweights.

Just want to point out however... casuals tend to take more fighters seriously at 126lb and above.

Barrera vs Pac was fought at featherweight. And Barrera happens to be hugely popular and Mexican.

That's because that's not the way people see. A non-p4p best Barrera is better than today's p4p best Gonzales this is how people universally see it even today, when pacman beat Barrera he carries this mystic with him. Barrera has way more charisma, popularity and P4P skill than Gonzales even though at that time Barrera was not P4P number one.

So you make up a bunch of **** to make Barrera seem better than he is?

Barrera is better than Gonzales regardless of their P4P rankings in their respective era. Yes, I believe that.
