Marco Antonio Barrera. Best wins? Fact.

[SlimTrae]

So now Morales wasn't that good either? We'll have written off every songle fighter from the 90s by the end of the week!

[Kirkland Laing]

Is there anything about Steve Robinson that really warranted a discusion? Surely a fighter's name should do most of the talking for itself?

If you want to talk about 'The Cindarella Man' then start another passive agressive thread about him.

I thought you started this thread to talk about Barrera? I'd like to read this interview you happened to be reading, do you have a link? I'd like to read how Barerra sees it.

You could be right Powerpuncher, Morales is clearly the better name, but those wins were guttsy, hair and nail wins... Hamed may not have been on Morales' level, but the way Barrera was able to make him look lost and amaturish elevates the win, but then some people claim that Hamed's peak was years before then?

A fighters name should talk for itself? Seriously? That's funny considering.

This thread was soley about Barrera. I never once mentioned Naz until you brought him up. Am I not allowed to respond to accusations aimed directly at me? Behave.

"Definitely the best fight I had and my best victory was against Naseem Hamed," Barrera told THE RING while speaking of the 2001 master class that snapped the Prince's perfect record.

((by the way - don't be shy about revealing who the best featherweight in the world was when Naz was the best featherweight in the world ))

It's possibly his most famous victory because he burst Naz's bubble. Naz was the biggest thing in the lower weights at the time due to the sport being 50% showbusiness.

His best fight was his first fight against Morales and he earned more respect from boxing fans in that single loss than Naz did for his entire career.

Barrera beat undefeated top p4p fighters in their prime in morales and Hamed

Not many fighters can say they've done that

[Violent Demise]

Hamed was a good entertaining fighter. Fun to watch. But an ATG he was not. Facts don’t lie. And facts are Hamed never beat a real good fighter who was in his prime. All the fighters he fought who were a name came in with ridiculous amount of mileage on them. When Hamed fought Barrera. Barrera had already fought 55 times. Cesar Soto 63. Wilfredo Vazquez 59. Kevin Kelley 50. Vuyani Bungu 39. Tom Johnson 48. Manuel Medina 59. The ones that didn't Paul Ingle and Wayne McCullough were not as good as the previous fighters mentioned. McCullough was average. Ingle was straight garbage.

Watched Naz on sky and he said the reason he got beaten so comprehensively against Barrera was because he had broken his hand against Sanchez and was out the ring for 7 months. He had to lose over 2 stones in 8 weeks and said he was in the sauna the eve of the fight trying to lose 2 pounds.

But Naz always stated that Allah won him all his fights
So what happened this time around? Was Allah like "no dude you are on your own this time around, broken hand,lounging in the spa,Mexican champ. Good luck and everything though".

[AdamGB]

Hamed was never exactly a lean fighter... He never once looked dry or tight at any weight. Only got himself to blame for not getting down to fighting weight quickly enough.

Bit of a lame excuse, it wasn't an extremely physical fight, he wasn't out muscled or out paced, he was comprehensively out boxed...

[Fenster]

Manny Steward said Naz only sparred 12 rounds during the whole camp and watched nothing of Barrera apart from Junior Jones sparking him out. He was convinced that he'd knock him out easy.

You just have to watch that "little prince" film that documents the buildup to see what a complete and utter megalomaniac moron he was (had become).

He also said he fell out of love with the game by 28 because he had been in the game for 21 years.

He also said he should not have left Warren and that he made millions against MAB and could not turn down that fight.
