Come on now.
umm have you not seen any of his other comeback fights? Barrera has been getting tagged by nobodies and has looked like shit, Morales as well, whoever wants to kid themselves into believing either has a real chance in winning another world title, and at 140 nonetheless is just gonna be left with a rude awakening when one of the two if not both end up seriously hurt, which is exactly what i don't want, but if they continue this path it's what's going to happen, Barrera and Morales are no different than Holyfield at this point
Cotto facing a feather fisted fighter convinced you he's not shot though. Shit at least Barrera made the full 12 against Pac, and he's a smaller guy. So do you feel the same way about Cotto? He even had to backpedal most of the fight against Clottey.
Foreman, Clottey, and even Pacquiao are at higher caliber than anyone Barrera's fight since his comeback (and yes that includes Khan), the Pacquiao Cotto faced would have stopped Barrera AGAIN (or did you forget that Manny knocked him the fuck out as well, he lasted 12 rounds on his second try), Barrera is slow, his movement is predictable, and he's going to get owned once he goes back against a world level fighter, just like Morales is going to against Maidana, it's not like i'm attacking either guy, hell Morales is my favorite fighter but both are shot, and their time has passed, they're looking ordinary against mediocre opposition, at least Cotto is still fighting championship level opponents (aside from Mayorga) and had REAL problems like the shoulder injury, the lack of a real trainer, and the death of his father, what's Barrera's and Morales' excuse aside from well they're shot
