considering how MAB and Morales fought the PAcman, who do you think is deserving of better praise?
personally, I believe Morales deserved more praise for fighting it out with Pacman. Yes, he went down but that makes it more praiseworthy of him coz he fought with true bravery (for me). I respect Barrera but I respect Morales more for living up to how a mexican warrior should fight. O0
MORALES! Simply because he schooled Pac (MP-EM1) fair and square. Erik also had the cojones to trade with Pac.
you've got a point in the schooling thing.cc in 24.
Likewise in 24 ;)Quote:

As far as careers go...Barrera deserves more praise.
I'd have to agree with the last statement. Despite how long Morales lasted against Pacquiao in their respective fights, it was a lot more exciting to see him on the run, only to turn it around five seconds later. It was unpredictable, and brutal. Personally, that's how I like a match to be.
Yet Barrera is a great fighter. I've yet to see the pay-per-view in its entirety, but regardless of whether or not he got the fairytale end to his career, this expected loss shouldn't eclipse everything he's done in the past. That wouldn't really be fair.
as much as I have been avoiding to say this cause mab is retiring. I think mab hitting pac on the break was uncalled for and mab himself wrote himself off with that. unlike eric even though his the only man to really beat pac, he fought pac 2 more times and fought like a true mexican warrior and he won the philippines over. I'm not going to say who had the better career because that is like counting to infinitely but their fights with pacman prove who could really be a sour loser.
morales ofcourse!
Respect to both fighters but EM never held back against PAC
ive always respected both fighters. how ever i give morales the nod for fighting. he fought as hard as he could knowing he is being outgunned. doing that he had the chance to strafe pac with punches. it was his body that failed him not his heart. mab kinda lost my respect after that dirty display last night. it was really disappointing knowing that he is a hall of famer.
Morales he beat Pac in a classic fight the first time and traded bombs with him in all 3 of there fights even though he lost he went out on his shield.
Morales by far. It's a no-brainer. He beat Manny,MAB never came close in either fight. And when both were close to being shot/far past their prime,Morales fought like a warrior that he is and has been his whole career. He came to KTFO Manny. MAB just wanted to survive.
In terms of how they faced Pac Morales gains more accolade, but career wise Barrera will have a greater legacy
