As for Nas vs Morales, Erik would have walked on to a lot more punches than Marco did. Barrera had a good boxing brain and defence which is essential vs Nas. Erik didnt have either of those and let his heart rule his head so its a toss up.
If you thought Barrera beat Marquez you must be a Barrera fan imo.

Marquez clearly won that fight.

Prime for prime i favor Barrera though.

Barrera landed the more shots statistically and he scored the only KD. Harold Lederman scored it for Barrera aswel.

If it happend in 2000 then it wouldnt have gone to the scorecards.
Barrera possibly could have won if it was in 2000 but no way would he have stopped him, i mean Pacquiao is and always was a bigger puncher than MAB was and well he was unsuccessful in putting Marquez away, i'm pretty sure that Barrera would have used his boxer/puncher style instead of his more technical approach, going down to the body and staying on his toes moving around behind his jab, cause if he tried to just slug Marquez would counter, making it a tougher fight than needed, and back to the real fight that happened, Barrera was also the only one to hit the other guy while he was clearly down, so well karma's a bitch lol
