....that's probably true, but Barrera is not as washed up like Morales is. Barrera will show tonight that's he's not over the hill as of yet.

....because he's got a warrior mentality, and most of all, a big, big, payday!!

...and enough money to live lavishly, and most of all, enough money for his family to live very, very comfortably.

Well, he was supposed to be fighting Jesus Chavez at 135 (for a title I think) and Rocky Juarez wasn't even the first replacement for the fight.

I like Barrera in this fight.. I don't think he was up for the first one, I know he's up for this one, and he wants a Pacquiao rematch (I don't know why) badly...

chavez is a warrior. No question. about it. Barrera is a warrior too. Juarez (I got you bigtime;) is going to take him in this fight. This fight will be close like the last one but the younger Juarez beats a still very good but aging Barrera. I think Juarez gets majority decision. Scores ranging from 115-113 to 116-112

Julio Cesar Chavez would be a definate #1, com-on the guy went 88-0 before his first loss.

Not nearly as arrogant as Roy was, but that level of arrogance might not be possible.


Classic!

i think in his last fight ever carbajal stopped jorge arce. i don't think he fought after that, the fight was in mexico and afterwared michael and his brother danny had to run to the dressing room because they were being showered with cups of pee. little hands of stone is one of my all time favorites,i followed him since the 88 olympics.
