barrera, as you know is capeable of beating anyone in the world against around his weight group cos of his age and experience,and how many world title fights he has exerienced like many other champions. he has to be pushed and motivated and feel he has got a real challenge. To train, and be prepared mentally and physically, i feel barrera is so mentally strong he will take the fight in my opinion. sooner or later barrera's age will catch up on him and all those fights he has had.

Not to demean a legend like Barrera, but I think things will be even worse for him the second time around. There is no point comparing Juarez and Pacquiao because they are almost polar opposites. Juarez is sometimes timid and doesn't throw enough punches, whereas Manny isn't happy if he isn't throwing. Plus, Manny is in his prime, and Barrera, great as he is, is no spring chicken anymore. I would pick Manny for a stoppage in the middle rounds.

No! Pacquiau may win a rematch but not in the same fashion. Barrera has a good corner and learns from his mistakes. He won't take Pac Man lightly. In his first match with Rocky Juarez it was very competitive but in the rematch Barrerra took Rocky to school. Also in his matches with Moralles he just kept getting better each fight. Respecting his power would lead Barrera to outbox him until the later rounds where eventually body blows would take some power out of Manny's punches. It would be a close fight going into the later rounds. If it went to a decision it would go to Barrera if not Pacquiau would score a LATE KO

I think Barrera will fight a totally different fight than the 1st 1 and outbox Pacman and win a decision like he did against Hamed. He'll fight a fight similar to the the 1 he fought against Hamed, a smart fight, using his jab and moving but landing some good hard punches. Plus he'll be fired up from the lost to Pacman and he wants to beat him real bad. Look for the Pacquiao express train to be derailed by Barrera in the rematch!

Barrera will surely try to do what he did with Rocky Juarez. Against Morales, the Pacman had it easy because his opponent was coming to him. Barrera on the other hand would be running away from him in the ring.
Just the same, Pacman will be the favorite for this one. He has improved ten-fold since they last met. And Barrera may also be in the sunset of his carreer. I think Pacman will KO Barrera in eight to ten. If not, Barrera will win decision.

Yes. When they fought in 2003, Pacquiao was a one dimensional fighter using mostly his left and he beat Barrera convincingly. Now Pacquiao is a much more complete fighter who's in the prime of his career. It will be the same result as last time. Pacquiao will ko Barrera.

I'm a big fan of Barrera's but I don't see him winning the rematch...pacman is in his prime...and although it doesnt always ring true most of the time once a man kayo's you he has a distinct edge over you mentally and It's very hard to beat him the next time out....I just want a competitive bout!

Pacquio is an awesome boxer(I'm from the Phillippines)looking at what he did to Morales a week ago. I think he can because he's coming off the big win over Morales and he's got enough moves to beat him.

I think that manny is almost at his peak in his career. Seeing how he destroyed morales last week, it will be ounce again an easy victory for Manny!
