Why doesn't Barrera get ripped for his classless behavior????

It's one thing to maybe get in a weak pushing match with an opponent, it's quite another to sucker punch an opponent...twice.

And it's a cop out, IMO, to say it's alright because it didn't lead to a postponement or cancellation...there's always a threat that a punch to the face with a bare hand could lead to a cut or injury.

I'm not saying he's as bad as James Butler, but he deserves to be in a similar category, IMO...Riddick Bowe, as well.

 

MAB had the nerve to act like he'd won the fight. That alone makes him a complete joke. Good riddance to him.

 

:nono:

Castillo thought he beat Hatton.

why does double l hate barrera? i thought he loves all mexican fighters :dunno:

 

you thought wrong. as usual.

 

Not all...he just wants to be Mexican.

 

Barrera does occasionally exhibit classless behavior outside the ring - which is so at odds with what he normally says and the way he acts.

Hypocrisy which should be noted.

And in the ring, when things get tough - he'll resort to fouling, no doubt....at least he does now in recent years. If it's too tough, he'll look to "bitch out"...I always thought what he pulled vs. Pacquiao in the first match was a bit disgraceful.

However, with regards to Morales...don't underestimate the things Erik himself has said that have riled up Barrera to respond in kind. :nono:

That rivalry goes both ways.

Peace.

 

This is a good and very valid point. But just let me point out. Floyd has gotten under Hatton's skin already, but you don't hear racial slurs being thrown out. There are insults and then there is racial degradation. Barrera IS a racist. People who don't believe it are just turning a blind eye to his behavior.

 

You mean calling him "indio"?

That's not about race...it's about SOCIAL CLASS. It may or may not have racial undertones, depending on the use.

It doesn't have the same charged context as the "N" word or "camel jockey."

At least that's my $0.02.

Peace.

 

Get it right Donny, it's Sand Monkey.

 

:nono: :warning:

 

word.

 

Barrera is a punk who acts like a child when losing.

 

that's not boxing related....he never punched anyone at a press conference so it's a crap comparison

regarding being arrested, i'm sure you can find worse feinds in boxing that someone who got caught speeding

I agree with you guys.. but I don't think he is on the level of Golata at all... that dude is a wack-o ::

I mean, he tried to rape a MAN and then pretended he was a cop!:: ::

 

But then why does Oscar de la Hoya get a pass for saying that black fighters can't take it to the body and that they have no heart?

 

Does he "get a pass"?? I thought he got a lot of hate for that racist ass comment

 

It got very little press, and it was forgotten three months later.

 

really? Everyone I hung with when I lived in DC didn't "let it go" at all..

 

I agree with you LOK, I know tons of guys that turned completely on DLH for the comment.

 

Golota hasn't done anything in press conferences but has done some pretty bad things in the ring.

And Golota has been arrested for worse things than just speeding and impersonating a police officer (to a police officer, what an idiot!).
