And Barrera fought a decent fight today. This is a mature older Barrera and he lost by no more than a few points against a prime Pac. There is no shame in going out like he did. Up until the 10th I thought it was neck and neck too.

He deserves a long and happy retirement.
Well done, miles. Barrera put up a much, much better fight than I expected, as you know. The scorecards were a joke.

I underestimated how smart Barrera is. Great fighter.
Thanks Fenster,

He did put up a decent fight and he went out with no reason to feel any shame. He just gave the number 2 p4p fighter a pretty close fight. If Barrera had that little bit more speed and stamina that he once had then he could have really taken this version of Pac deep. But at 33 and nearly 34 it isnt easy to push fights like he used to.

The cards have been going strangely against Barrera for two years now. Though disappointed by the margins I cannot say I am surprised going by how recent fights have been scored.

I wont make any case for Barrera winning this fight because I think it was decided through the final 2 rounds. Pac was able to take it with his workrate.
