Jones just had his number, Jones caught Barrera with very hard right hand and Barrera went down, he got back up and then he was pounded along the ropes and he went down again but Barrera's corner men jumped into the ring when the round was still active so Barrera got DQ but if you watched the fight you would consider it a KO and not DQ win. The rematch Barrera done better i think he edged it but like i said Jones just had Barrera's number.
grr you know this would get a response from me he did get a tko but due to a kidnapping in the family/ransom, only did two weeks training, should have pulled out of the fight but that's youth for you thinking you're invincible. Second fight was much closer, still a L on his record though. People for years kept saying he was chinny after the first Jones fight
I know your big MAB fan Missy so am i, i don't watch Jones fight because its horrible watching one of your favorite fighters get beat. Barrera was too over confident just like Mosley was going into Forrest fight and he payed the price. I did think Barrera won the rematch but Jones just had the right style to beat Barrera theres always a boxer out there that just has your number, like Norton/Ali, Forrest/Mosley, Saddler/Pep. But fair play to Barrera he comeback very well when most boxers wouldn't have recovered from that.
