hats off to marco antonio barrera tonight for a fantastic performance!!

"Hamed will not know what he is fighting," Barrera said. "How could he know? He has fought some good champions, but not at their prime, not like me. He will find out that he is fighting a man who is willing to go the distance, at the same pace and with the same pressure as in the first round. This will be something new for him, but I have been over this ground before." #reply-15631671

"Naz is being turned into an American-style fighter. He is planting his feet more and standing his ground and Barrera has been brought up on American fighters...." #reply-15631797

"It's the first time I've faced a fighter with his (Naz's) (awkward) style, but I've faced other fighters with as good a punch.... I'm going to be patient and I'm going to catch him," Barrera said, turning the tables. "I'm going to look for the knockout in the first round, and if it doesn't come I'm in shape to go 12. I can picture myself beating Hamed...I'm ready to win," Barrera said. "For sure, I'm going to win." #reply-15631645
