    He might be the worst sportsman this side of Golota.

    1. Punches McKinney at press conf

    2. Refuses to touch outstretched glove of Morales rd. 1 fight 1

    3. Shoulder drives Hamed as boxers tangle up on canvas

    4. Infamous ramming of Hamed into ringpost

    5. Sunsequently refuses to touch Hamed's outstretched glove as Hamed stands there humiliated

    6. Punches Morales at press conference in Houston

    7. Fouls Johnny tapia as Tapia shows respect throughout fight

    8. Blatant foul after knocking Marquez to the canvas, confusing Jay Nady, leading Nady to commit worst officiating error ive ever seen

    9. Intentional headbutt and low blows vs Manny Pac in 1st fight

    10. Lands his best punch of the fight on the break vs. Pacquiao



    what a poor sport

    I think what makes it bad is that Duran was marketed as this straight from the slums of Panama badass who was el diablo. Barrera markets himself as a middleclass good natured kid who happened to be good at boxing. In the ring, they were both classless scoundrels who thought fouling was necessary.

    Barrera's a fucking cheap shot artist, I'm glad Manny beat the shit out of him again

    You forgot not giving his opponents credit for beating him fair and square and his fight to survive and fuck the people who paid me performance against Manny Pacquiao Saturday night.It amazes me the number of "quality" posters on here didn't find that to be a problem,they said he was "boxing" Pacquiao:lol: Ok and I guess Roy Jones was doing the same against Tarver in there third fight':laughing:
    because what Barrera did was the same fucking thing,there's a difference between boxing to win and boxing to survive and stink out the place and Barrera chose the second option.

    It is true Barrera is a cheat. You can add all the low blows on EM and hitting him after the bell as well.

    He beat some guy up and then pulled the guy's pants off, acting like he was going to rape him. When he was pulled over for speeding, he pretended to be a police officer.

    Barrera didn't shoulder drive Hamed to the canvas. Hamed had his arm wrapped around Barrera's neck in a choke and tried to DDT Barrera as they both went down.:lol:

    Both MAB abd Erik Morales are two of the worst sportmen I have ever seen in the ring, along with Ray Leonard, Terry Norris, and George Foreman.
    I seldom remember a fight of Ray's that he didn't hit after the bell, Norris always hit a guy on the floor, and Foreman always hit a guy low.

    Better include Trinidad...his saved his low blows for when he got hurt and LOVED to push you off with the elbow (which I have not issue with) and LOVED to push his forearm under your chin (which I have a problem with).

    i agree w/ all but Morales. it's morales who usually does the complaining about his opponents hitting behind the head and below the belt.

    however, he is a terrible sportsman when it comes to losing if that's what you meant.

    after david diaz congratulated him on his effort and his retirement, morales and his dad gave him zero credit and wrote him off as a dirty fighter. but then again, he gave kudos pacquiao in all three of their fights.

    If he's a real standup guy, he'll pretend to be a fighter next time.

    agREED on most, though to be honest, I couldn't care less about his not touching gloves with any fighters during a round. To me, it's the most meaningless gesture in the sport. You touch gloves prior to the start of the fight. More often than not, fighters congratulate each other one way or another at the end of the fight. That's more than enough time to show your sportsmanship.

    You have 3 minutes per round to fight. So just fight. Fuck all that dap shit.

    I remember thinking that Barrera needed advice from someone like Holyfield on how to properly use your head as a weapon.

    Barrera's repeated headbutt attempts were blatant, and they were missing, too.

    I agree with Reed about what goes on in the ring. But Barrera has no class, he never has. The shit at press conferences, the crap with the police officer, and not to mention all the racist shit he spewed about Morales. The guy thinks he's better and higher, he is pretty much the same as some White Elitist that lives in Beverly Hills. All of the hispanics who work their ass off out in the fields, doing construction, or any other "lower class" job, Barrera looks at them as pieces of shit. He's a horrible human being.

    at least he was skilled enough to last 12 rounds and land some punches unlike the mexican who only knew how to move forward before quitting after a bodyshot.

    As Looooooong as it DOESN'T Lead to the Postponement or Cancellation of that Fight, REED Couldn't Care Less about What Occurs @ a Presser...

    Honestly, REED would Rather have some Fireworks @ a Presser than a Mundane Affair where Both Guys R OVERLY Complimentary....N Terms of Press Conferences, Give REED Vargas-Mayorga or Floyd-Hatton OVER Shane-Cotto...

    I think we all like a little drama in the build up to the fight, just makes it a bit more interesting. What Barrera did with Morales was just dispicable. Could you imagine what the world would think of MAB if he called Hamed a "camel jockey" or Junior Jones the "N" word? I think the rest of the world would see him for his true colors, but the fact is, the Native American doesn't have much of a voice, especially in Mexico.

    what I always found funny is how some people critized Morales for not acting mature nad made Barrera out to be the bigger man. When they both equally act llike clowns.

    Morales always claimed Barrera was a two faced punk on and off camera. For some reason I thought the same since Barrera hooked up with Oscar. Becoming more politically correct. But when things don't go his way BARrera shows his true colors.

    I don't have a problem with anybody being an asshole. Just don't pretend to be something your not.
