Revisiting Morales vs Barrera 1

[El Gitano]

Morales is my favorite fighter all time, but I think he lost the first fight, won the 2nd fight and the 3rd fight I had it a draw.

I thought Barrera knocked him out in 3rd fight though. It was still good.

A good fight is a good fight...but yea, it wasn't contested on the level of morales barrera. That's why I give the edge to morales barrera 1 over castillo corrales 1 as well.

Just finished watching this fight on YouTube cause of this thread.
What a great fight.
I didnt score and thought the fight looked very even.
What a classic.

I'm glad you went and saw it because of my post. High level Boxing right there.

I agree with everything here although I think the first could've gone either way, I "sense" that Barrera deserved to win the first.

You guys mentioned some other great fights in this thread.

Don't forget Barrera-McKinney, Toney-Jirov. Gatti-Ruelas, Lopez-Alvarez II

Barrera won the third fight
