115-112 Barrera . I remember when the decision was announced there was uproar . Nobody agrred with it and its a shame cuz after such a great fight there was booing around the arena . Barrera bossed it early with better speed and swept the 1st 3 rounds . Morales worked his way back into it but was hurt in the 5th. I still gave Morales that round though cuz he outworked Barrera for the 1st two . Morales took the next 3 rounds to make it an even fight and this is where Barreras better defence was apparent . Plus he was doing more damage and Morales was often staggered . Barrera was taking the later rounds knowing when to up the pace and finish rounds strong . Morales always answered attacks and occassionally flustered Barrera . He'd clawed his way back into the argument and I had him a round down going into the 12th . Barrera really worked hard though and Morales was floored due to exhaustion which should have put it beyond doubt . Dispite the bad decision Barrera beat Morales twice over after that fight so it put things right . Great fight though .
