Good fighter, maybe not totally one dimensional but not really a versatile guy.
You just nailed that one.

Never liked that style. I'm not down for the good ol' "one-two" punch.
I tend to like fluid boxers, with either style of boxer, puncher, or brawler.
True... look @ Barrera... He has more demensions then I can count... Fir the record; everyone hates on the last Juarez bout. I thought it was a great tactical fight and was fun to see how truly great Barrera is!!!!
Barrera's a perfect example of a guy that really has a lot of dimensions.

Guy can come forward and be a pressure fighter like he was earlier in his career, and still does at times like the third Morales fight, can fight on the inside, and can win fights boxing and moving, jabbing and countering. Can do it all.
