    Barrera didn't find it funny. A cheeky Hamed left on the break is what prompted Barrera to slam him up against the ring post in the 12th. If there was no power on the punch MAB wouldn't have cared...and certainly wouldn't have risked disqualification.

    means nothing. People will get angry even if you only slap them

    As always, Panchy is making up complete horseshit. I haven't watched Hamed-Barrera in over 10 years, but I do remember Hamed landing some shots that Barrera definintely felt, and I seem to recall one time that Hamed slightly buzzed him, but to MAB's credit, he always answered back immediately. The fact that he fought back probably psychologically fucked a front runner like Hamed, however, the notion that Barrera laughed at his punches is a lie.
