If Barrera gets the win I'd like to see him retire he has given us enough, I wouldn't like to see his road lead to Pacman again. As far as the outcome of this rematch.. I'll go with the underdog..

I got a bit tetchy reading the tangents and variables in your thread. I suppose, as a Barrera fan, I want him to keep giving classic performances and dig deep to pull out results. Inevitably there comes a time when you can no longer keep doing it like you used to. I like to think that this time is not yet upon Barrera and he might still get out of the game before this even plays a role upon his career. I think he was below par against Juarez last time out and hope that this wasnt a sign.
I want Barrera to come out and dominate and take rounds clearly. I want a convincing UD. I can only hope that what I want is what I get.
And I still desperately want to see Barrera: Pac 2![]()
I don't like Barrera. Not personally, but as a fighter. Maybe it's because I'm an Erik Morales fan.
Barrera won the first fight, I see no controversy. But Barrera will lose this one. I told myself that after they met the first time.
Rocky doesn't even deserve this fight. And this is not like Barrera to take a risky fight, at this stage in his career, without getting a multi-million dollar big payday.
My only thought of why he took this fight is because Erik and Pacquiao's resume's currently are too damn big and flashy for Barrera and sooner or later people will catch on. But with this Rocky fight, Barrera is still in the mix, taking on competitve fights, just like Pac and Erik.
Rocky, I hate that guy. All the talent in the world, and he doesn't use it.
No conviction whatsoever. At least Barrera fights with determination when he has the advantage.
I'm more of an EM man too but I really like MAB and think he will win but you hit 2 points beautifully,Rocky does not deserve a rematch and although I do not hate Rocky,I find him dissappointing. He lacks a killer drive,he lacks something,when I am watching him,I feel he has plenty more in the tank but he does not use it. Where was the jab,the body work,he's an Olympina,he should have the fundamentals mastered.Originally Posted by Gyrokai
I expect to see far more activity from him but I still feel MAB is far too skilled for him. I think the early round will be every important,Juarez is a notoriously slow starter,if MAB takes conrtol early,he will win whereas if Juarez can increase his work rate early,it will be a long long night for MAB.
What do you think of Humberto Soto bro? I'm a big big fan of his,I think he can do damage to alot of these top guys and look,he beats Juarez and Juarez gets 2 shots at MAB!!! What the heck!
we all like MAB to win because we love boxing...
we know there is that next fight to happen
mab vs pac 2
but what if rocky wins and em emerge victorious on the rubber match?
will pac and mab still battle each other?
i think this is still exciting but we'll be all kinda dissapointed
because its not the proper setting for it
Soto is exactly how I wanted to fight. He fought the perfect fight against Rocky. He got rocked once, but he was in with a killer undefeated fighter.Originally Posted by El Gamo
The Rock's lazy eye's bug the hell outta me! heheh He's even lazy eye'd during a fight.
Your right about the Olympian heritage, Juarez should have his fundamentals down pat. Maybe he's just spoiled and spoon fed, I don't know. But MAB has both skill and will, yes that's admirable.
I might even root for MAB this weekend just because that damn lazy eye'd bastard claimed he won the fight.
I think MAB will lose, all the peices are set.
In the first fight, MAB looked like he wanted to fight back and get respect but his energy was damp and his breathing was apparent, like he was fighting in water. This time Barrera's older, more beat up, and Juarez has that damn youth on his side. IF Barrera pulls off a decisive decision or wins a close but decisive decision, or completely surprises me and Knock's this kid out, I'm gonna give him all the praise in the world. If Barrera does it, it will be by boxing AND using Rocky's lack of killer instinct to keep him at bay. Still, the fight was close and dangerous enough the first time that this is a ballsy choice by Barrera.
But I'm sticking with my predictions, Marco just looked sapped.
Anyone that fight's like Barrera is good for boxing, IWO.
Even in loss he goes down swinging & he does it beautifully. He looked battered & beaten against Pacquiao...but still determined...still tried to gut it out & get off the canvas.
That can't be said for many of our heroes of late. He's HOF worthy, no doubt, but I can see where many people don't dig on him.
I'm a Morales fan also...just as I am a Barrera fan...but as a fellow poster so eloquently just said...when it's your time...it's your fwockin time...well...in so many words.![]()
Never beg a 40 dollar hooker...specially after she's just turned down your mom's credit card!!
Imagine of MAB and EM retired? I think they should hug or something,I can't believe htat they don't like each other after all the wars they have been through! I don't think it's MAB's time just yet,I still think he can beat Rocky"Originally Posted by wacko3205
Too much bad blood that runs way too deep.Originally Posted by El Gamo
That rivalry started off badly at the weigh ins & it just got worse.
Doubt that we'll ever see those two hug it out.
Theyr'e the Ali Frazier of our generation as far as respect goes...look at the state that Ali had to be in to love up on Joe.

I think Rocky will win by KO. MAB did look sapped and I just think Rocky was in better shape in the last match and it will only be more apparent in the rematch. The first fight is on tv Friday night to get us all prepped for saturday.

wako!?!?!?
i know how you feel aboput mma, but what is the last fight you watched, was it from the NHB era of UFC? i can see how you would see the UFC guys just coming off that gameshow with no real tactic just punching each otrher without defense and thinking its too much, but have you ever seen a pride fight with nogiera or fedor?

El Gamo, you didn't tell us who you'll be cheering for. I'll be going for Barrera coz nothing beats seeing an ol' warrior giving a good spanking on some kid showing no respect for an ol' man.Originally Posted by El Gamo
Seriously, my heart goes for Barrera.
Once in awhile, get outside in fresh air, take a deep breath & with a deep sigh, let out all the things that's bottled up inside you & be free, & you'll get a glimpse of nirvana.
