I think the Hamed camp thought Barrera would come to brawl like he did with Morales. Manny Steward joked they picked the wrong fighter when Barrera fought Jesus Salud.

Back to the topic JMM. At the time - JMM who?

Rain. JMM didn't duck Paq He and many others thought he had won, why shouldn't he get a better pay deal?

If that is so, does it mean Pac is ducking JMM now? JMM wants the rematch and Pac ain't giving it to him.
Remember when Pac first said "No" to ODLH? Does it mean Pac was ducking ODLH? Nope, he just wanted a bigger buck. See what I mean?
Asking for a bigger buck and ducking someone are very different.
you guys are right, i used the word duck too losely and it is disrespectful to a great fighter like jmm.

the first fight could of gone either way and jmm does deserve to get a better deal. but at the time jmm was not as popular and it was a step backwards to go to asia and fight a unknown fighter worldwide, for a mere 30k. Pac was only making a few thousands fighting ledwaba,sanchez and only 30k to fight marco. JMM didn't duck pac but he made a bad decision taking chris johns offer because whatever pacs camp offer was still better.

Chino - Right now pac isn't fighting a chris john for 30k, his fighting a fighter that is one of the if not the most popular fighter worldwide, hatton for millions of dollars. Hatton is a bigger draw then JMM, Pac will make more fighting Hatton and legacy wise as well. JMM is the Greater fighter then Hatton but a win over Hatton is a lot better then a win over JMM right now. Because Pac has already won over JMM and another win would be great but a win over Hatton at 140 is ever GREATER.
