I had it 115-112 Barrera. Can't necessarily complain too much about the scores though given how tight so many of those rounds were. Incidentally I scored all 3 fights for Barrera.

Rd1- EM
rd2- MAB
rd3- EM
rd4- EM
rd5- EM
rd6- EM
rd7- EM
rd8- MAB
rd9- MAB
rd10- EM
rd11- MAB
rd12- MAB 10-8 even though the knockdown was BS

114-113 Morales, I'm one of the few that had no problem with the decision. Lampley's cheerleading was far more obnoxious than the cards. So many close and brutal rounds it's almost a coin flip. I have way more issue with stuff like Hopkins/Taylor 2 & Whitaker/DLH when you can count the significant shots as they happen.

I also would give Erik my daughter, so I can't claim not to have an inkling to send close rounds his way. All time epic fight.

8-4 Morales in the second
7-5 MAB in the third

I thought Barrera was the clear winner of the first, Morales the clear winner of the 2nd, and the rubber match I scored a draw (watch it without the incessant HBO cheerleading for MAB)

Morales won a classic even though I see where the Barrera nods come from.

that phrase should be brought out on any MAB-Morales 1 thread. Lampley made me want to puke that night.

I have scored it once and scored it 114-113 MAB
