BARRERA-MORALES: A GRUDGE FOR THE AGES... by Aladdin Freeman
If Marco Antonio Barrera and Erik Morales fought 100 rounds, 99 of them probably could be scored for either fighter. In the third fight of their trilogy I scored it a draw, yes a draw. I did think Barrera was much more convincing in the rounds that he won, I but strongly feel that Morales won rounds 2,3, 7, 8 , 11, and 12 and no matter how much he got beat up in the other six rounds he deserved at worse a draw.

BARRERA vs MORALES PART III... Sharkie's Machine by Frank Gonzalez Jr.
It’s disgraceful that the fights that would best promote the sport in the mainstream are unavailable to the potential fight fans of the future—kids. If the best fights were on PPV when I was a kid, I doubt I would have followed the sport as religiously as I did and I definitely wouldn’t be writing about Boxing today.
PPV helps keep Boxing a ‘cult sport’ instead of a mainstream sport. Too bad the greedy folks who rule Boxing can’t see where the real money is. I bet the average, mainstream professional athletes in football, basketball, hockey, etc. make more money, fame and benefits from their sports than 95% of the amazing athletes who fight professionally.

BARRERA-MORALES: A GREAT FIGHT BETWEEN TWO BITTER OPPONENTS... by Mike Leanardi
After another great fight between these two bitter opponents, it is hard to ask for anything more from these two great Champions who, through 36 rounds gave it everything they had, except for maybe a fourth fight. Hey, I can dream can’t I?

THE GREAT ONES RISE TO THE OCCASION... by Chris Robinson

The expectations were high for Barrera/Morales III and the end of this epic trilogy lived up to all expectations and then some.

BARRERA: "I HAVE A BIGGER HEART THAN MORALES, AND THAT'S THE KEY TO MY VICTORY"... by Tom Dickey and Roberto Hernandez
Barrera feels he can't leave the ring as a beaten man, and feels real strong at this weight. He has no excuses for his loss to Manny Pacquiao, only that it was a bad night, and Pacquiao is a great fighter. Losing will not be an option when he faces Morales.

SECOND TIME THE CHARM FOR MAURICIO PASTRANA?... by Chris Robinson

IVAN CALDERON: STYLE OVER SUBSTANCE ... by Chris Robinson
As fighters come and go over the years we are introduced to the different styles and characteristics that set them apart. People love big punchers and they love seeing knockouts. If you come equipped with some serious pop in your fists you are more likely to be noticed. A fighter with great skills but not quite as much raw power can often be overlooked and ... such is the case of Ivan ‘Iron Boy’ Calderon, who defends his WBO Strawweight belt against Carlos Fajardo this Saturday on HBO PPV underneath Morales-Barrera.
