    Violent demise, u takin a stab at my boxing knowledge? Lmfao homey, u compare ur saddoleague ranking compared to mine and there goes ur answer..
    I never said anything about barreras age,foo.. Its about the mileage on the odometer, not the age, we all know that. Barrera was still at the top of his game when he fought naz.


    Go make me a sandwich or something, vd.

    I don't know what your knowledge is to take a stab at it. Lot of foolish people think Barrera was prime going into the Hamed fight. If your one of them than the comment applies to you. If not than it doesn't.

    ok

    to be fair

    both Barrera (Who was at #2 or #3 p4p at the time and would win another title north after ) and

    Pacquiao ( Who will lose to Morales in his 1st fight at 130 )

    aren't prime on November of 2003 *one of them was primed



    --

    Barrera had a different style at 122 but LOL at Barrera being not primed againts Naz

    -Peace

    They both fought decent fighters. IMO these threads always turn into a 'my fighter has a bigger one that yours' when in reality I suspect that Floyd might be somewhat more endowed, but in terms of actual opponents, you can really make a case for either guy.

    Mayweather has perhaps coasted more in recent years in never facing Cotto nor Margarito, but in his time he did fight credible opposition.

    Records are very similar both have big wins at low weights and good wins at high weights Pacs might be slightly better first to fight and beat Martinez has the best resume.

Would have to be Morles, Barrea, and Marquez for Pac and For Mayweather Castllio, Correles and Dela Hoya i don't see their top wins being to far off really. I guess the thing that can also be said is that Mayweather never lost so kinda what tips off the scale as well.
    I honestly think Pacquiao's peak was between his fights from David Diaz until he fought Cotto. He's been on the slide since he fought Clottey and on.

    I do not think he is much better then the version that Jmm fought to be honest with you C lo and as for him slowing think the Mosely fight pretty clear. I am not sure how much better his prime was then Morles because most of his opponents were not in prime or coming off huge loses so i am not sure. As for resume its close but Mayweather not losing is kinda what edges it for me because he has not lost yet. If they do fight some time in 2012 or 2013 both been fighting for a while and i think there peak is over with really.

    Who you think showed him he was no longer in his prime? Junior Jones. Like I said, Barrera's last prime fight was the McKinney fight

    I see. so he was past prime after Kennedy McKinney.


    That's an interesting opinion.


    I like to also know.

    Was Morales Primed when he 'officially' lost to Barrera @126 ?? ( 1st loss )


    so you have Barrera above Morales because a past primed Barrera took Morales's Zero ?
