I was at the Barrera vs. Juarez II - L.A. Press Conference (9-12-06)

[El Gamo]

CC for the pics...Predidictions?

Thanks DaxxKhan, I'd cc you back but I gotta wait 24 cuz I cc you for your article yesterday.

I'll be REAL honest with you I've seen Barrera a few times prior to a fight in conf. or what not for some reason he just looked drained (weight) he looked weak and hes getting old, when I was up close you could see it that there was something going on.


I would say making weight is a problem.

I though he looked weak in their first fight IMO....He just didn't have the all out in him like in the past....He has been in a lot of big fights ....actuallly wars in his career....He's only 32 or just turned 33 I think....Maybe it's all catching up to him??....This may end up like the DLH/Chavez fight...Young warrior humbles old??...Either way I root for Marco...I hope he takes this one wins big and thinks abt retirement

Normally I would have disagreed but you guys are right,MAB is getting old and if EM loses,I doubt we will see him either,it would be the end of an era. I still MAB has it in him to win this one but this performance is VERY important because I think he knows that if he does not perform well,it could be the end and no way could he hang with Manny.
