Have never seen barrera as a legend nor morlaes like a chavez

duran is a legend, his skills are way better for one and he fought way above his weight and was succesful. he quit and that forever hurt his legacy it was a dumb move. I understand what you guys are saying but to me barrera is not a legendary fighter by any stretch, he got layed out twice by junior jones. Duran got layed out by tommy hearns a vicious right handed puncher and avoce his natural weight, barrera ill go as far to say is great fighter ::** but a legend give me a break

Could not disagree more hell There are more no american boxing legends in my book easily, barrera just has never impressed me as on

Wrong. It's pointless posting since you're only doing it to run a fighter down.

I suppose you think Pac is a legend?

well, if your picking one's opposition here........ then who has Duran beaten apart from SRL?

and Duran has lost too much worse opponents than Junior Jones

Im waiiting to hear who duran lost to worse than junior jones and in a more devastating fashion

MAB and Morales are bona fide legends. they can box and brawl, have fought the best of their eras and always seem to bounce back after losing thats a mark of a legendary fighter.

barrera has not avenged his defeat to pac though, hes bounced back but against whom... pac lost and koed morales. A legend fights even when victory is not assured

I told you all it would come back to pacpacpacpacpacpacpacpacpacpacpacpacpac ;D

Lets put it too rest i respect your opinions but too me Barrera is a great fighter Not A legendeary One, you wont here his name 20 eyars from now ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

I have to disagree, barrera and morales are always going to be mentioned when speaking of great trilogies, speaking about mexican fighters, when naming the best fighters of this era, when speaking of exciting action packed fighters and also of the best fighters at the lower weight classes.

yes a great trilogy but legendery fighters??? Youll hear something like this a fighter form the ninteis named barrera a great little mexcain fighter... etc once did this...

Kirkland Laing outboxed him silly

yeah and he was um just a bit past his prime and um did not get koed in a brutal embarrsing fashion and um was also above his um natural weight and ........

barrera is a hell of a legend. he's a guaranteed hall of famer. he's been dominating for years and has bounced back shit loads of times and always looks better from a loss. i mean if your trying to suggest that a fighter could never taste defeat to be recognised as a legend. then who the fuck is a legend? marciano? i cant see what more barrera could do to become a legend. avenge his loss to pac man (who is one of the best fighters around these days). that might even happen yet.
and the way you keep going on about manny pacuiao is wierd. he's been stopped. he's been knocked out and did he avenge any of those losses?
