Marco is in my top 5 Mexican warriors of all time. Marco started his career as a brawler / puncher like Juan Manuel Marquez, another of my top 5 Mexican fighters of all time. Later he evolved to a master boxer / puncher. The fight with Naseem Hamed was the primer example of Barerra’s evolution. McKenny was an excellent top of his game fighter. This was one helluva fight. The great Marco Antonio Barrera showed his toughness and skill and won the fight.

I remember this fight! The first fight on HBO’s “Boxing After Dark” It was awesome! McKinney has a huge heart. He took those 12 rounds of punishment and kept fighting until the stoppage. He has nothing to be ashamed of. Again, awesome fight and a great way to kick off - what I believe - was one of the greatest boxing shows of all time
When you get popcorn and chips and drink ... to see a good fight , and you go on RUclips and put fights like this because there’s no more fights like this anymore 😎....
enrique rojas esos comentaristas estaban con el gringo siempre. desde antes que inicio la pelea. Luego en sus comentarios solo ponderaban los golpes del Mc. Luego los jueces ya estaban haciendo trampas en las tarjetas contra barrera. y aun despues de la pelea. todavia ponderando al MC como lo maximo. Ni lo disimulaban
Que es eso de guerrero Azteca? Hay muchos tribos de indios Mexicanos, porque tiene que ser Azteca? Eso de Azteca tambien se lo refieren al Canelo. Que tonteria! El Canelo enseña más sangre española que indio. Tengo más sangre Azteca yo en mi testiculo izquierdo que el Canelo en todo su cuerpo! Dejense de tonterias. Al que chansa le podrian decir Azteca era a Lupe Pintor!
I had the chance to train with Kennedy McKinney at Fort Carson Colorado I was stationed out there in the military and the 1988 Olympic boxing team came to Fort Carson from the Olympic training center for sparring with the Fort Carson boxing team.
Jones Jr. was the "expert" commentator? He was totally bias towards McKinney...he let this bias fog his vision and judgment. I've never seen The Champ so relaxed and confident as in this fight. The Champ didn't hold back and made sure he gave McKinney's an exceptional extra-hard ass kicking for the insults.
The great Marco Antonio Barrera and Kennedy McKinney in one helluva fight. Body shots, body shots, body shots got the win. The fights today are PPV hype and the hype is better than the fights. I won’t spend my money.
Going down without trying to clinch is ok in my book. No cheating when ur losing is good sportsman. Thats classy dude. Id hold on, head butt outta self survival
Escuchando a los comentaristas y sobre todo al de las tarjetas . difinitivamete están ciegos o son muy corruptos le van al negro y es el que va perdiendo toda la pelea desde el principio
Cierto. Incluso según uno de ellos, iba ganando Mckiney, y ni al caso. En los datos estadísticos (porcentajes de golpes tirados y conectados), siempre salía el mexicano con mas porcentaje de golpes conectados (a excepción del quinto round), que son los que cuentan. Cómo va a ir ganando el otro? Pinches comentaristas vendidos.
that bloody Budweiser Promo Print they should keep all these Signs out of the Ring you see Boxers slipping on them all the time, rant over, what a Fight absolute classic!!
"WOW"! What a great fight all the way,now i remember watching this fight years ago,i hadn't watched many Kennedy McKinney fights but looking back,this was exciting like "Popcorn",Sodas/Beer & Hot Dog Time", i pushed pause so i wouldn't miss anything,my jamaican friends would say that this was a "WICKED" fight,Emmett aka Emilio***
Don Barrera, sé qqué ha pasado buen tiempo, pero lo felicito, fue un gran boxeador...no soy fanático ni experto, solo un aficionado que no se pierde las peleas de los mexicanos...!Buena chinga le puso al gringo mamón ése!...Debería usted asesorar o capacitar al "Vaquero"...es luchon como usted! Felicidades por su carrera!. 😊
Great Fight, Although, Defeats the purpose of having a "3 Knockdown Rule" If It's Not Utilized... McKinney was Knocked Down 6 times and they didn't hold them against him... 🤦♂️
I had it 104-101 for the Baby Face Assassin, Marco Antonio Barrera, headed for the final round. What a fight! 10-9 MAB 20-18 MAB 29-28 MAB 39-37 MAB 48-47 MAB 58-56 MAB 67-66 MAB 77-73 MAB 87-81 MAB 96-91 MAB 104-101 MAB
Hello past Jason. How's life in 2020? I think we agree... 104-101 lead at the time of the KO Barrera McKinney 1 10 9 (clearly) 2 10 9 (clearly) 3 9 10 (close) 4 10 9 (stole it in the last 30 sec) 5 9 10 (close) 6 10 9 (Barrera stole it again) 7 9 10 (close) 8 10 7 (clearly) 9 10 8 (clearly) 10 9 10 (clearly) 11 8 10 (clearly) 12 KO
When Larry Merchant said Kennedy McKinney went down voluntarily, what kind of crap is that? He went down because he was being pummeled! I am not taking anything away from McKinney he was a good fighter but he lost that one and not because if age. Roberto Duran took out Davey Moore at 35 and Iran Barkley at 37. However I will say that sometimes age is a factor.
30 was old for the smaller weight classes in those days. Marvin Hagler was 33 when he retired, Chicanito Hernandez retired at 32, Ray Mancini at 31, Erik Morales was 31 when he 1st retired after the lost to Diaz. The Ruelas brothers retired around the 30 mark. Gabriel was 32. Rafael was 28. Today that looks young because guys fight less now and their careers stretch out longer. Barrera won because he was a great fighter. Had nothing to do with age. The odd thing was the next year Barrera was knocked out by Junior Jones giving Barrera his first loss. But in Jones next fight McKinney knocks out Jones. I loved the 90s.
During all 12 rounds all I heard was Mckinney this Mckinney that and on the 12 round when Mckinney got knocked down all I heard were 🦗🦗🦗🦗🦗🦗🦗🦗🦗🦗🦗🦗🦗🦗🦉🦉🦉🦉🦉🦉🦉🦉🦉🐸🐸🐸🐸🐸🐸
The commentators were talking out of a different orifice because their mouths were very biased. Mc Kinney told Russell, " I am allright, I can still run"! Hahaha! Pathetic commentating!
estos referis y comentaristas valen pa nada, lo bueno es que estados unidos se esta ya undiendo como pais y ya no tendremos que soportarlos, los veremos limpiando coches o trabajando en las cosechas , VIVA CHINA< VIVA RUSIA, viva un mundo libre !!
In round 6 Barrera threw 113 mostly (high quality) power punches at a 55% connect percentage, and still got criticised by his corner at the end of the round lmao
Marco did a Pacquiao on Mckinney in the 8th. Pulled away like he was gonna reset then threw a straight right and put him on the mat. Barrera said before his 1st fight with Pacquiao that Manny reminded him of his younger self. Of all the great Mexican fighters in that era, Marco in his prime was the most explosive and for me, the best.
McKinney Barrera 10-9 20-18 30-27 40-36 50-45 59-55 69-64 76-74 84-84 94-93 104-101 Those were my scorecards going into the 12th round. This fight is one of the overlooked, underrated, great fights in the history of boxing. This fight is rarely talked about. This fight is like a better version of Chavez/Taylor

McKinney had a classic style, easy on the eye. Very talented guy... Boy do I miss 90's boxing
Yep, McKinney had a beautiful style. Classic boxer/puncher.

After all the breaks the ref gave Mackenny he still couldn't handle Barrera.
I was thinking the same thing.

I always liked RJJ as a commentator - less than Emanuel Steward but far more than George Foreman. Despite this, he was terribly biased that night.
@Cucakings59 That's what he meant. Bum jones who ruled a bum division probably had money on his boy
Great fight
Man I watch this fight every year, and every year I get hyped even tho I know how its gonna end
"this Is not Barrera fight, this Is Mc Inney fight" 38:39, "Mc Inney survives" 39:48. Jajajaja comentaristas mentirosos.
Y eso que lo dijo Roy Jones jr. Más que mentirosos, estaban confiados. Subestimaron el poder de Marco Antonio Barrera.
"...this is not Barrera's fight, it's McKinney's fight" as The Champ knocks the shit out of McKinney. LOL!
Excellent fight
Apesar q Mckinney tiro buenos golpes y combinaciones esporadicos, Barrera domino desde el principio y es increible q fuera perdiendo en las targetas
Once there was good fights .... like this
Barrera otro gran campeón mexicano orgullo puro de Márquez para atrás puro campeón con huevos
The Baby Face Assassin Marco Antonio Barrera🇲🇽🍻
GREAT FIGHTERS WITH BIASED COMMENTATORS
Спасибо крутейший бой огонь
Wtf, he didnt clinch. Wow, hes a bad ass. I take back any hate on mcinney. Thats unbelievable and unheard of. Warrior confirmed
Great, great fight! What a heart shown by McKinney.
More likely, what a Mouth. When youre gonna get koed, better go quietly & not with an open Big Mouth.
The Budweiser painting on the canvas caused both guys knockdowns.
Супер бокс!👍

Hbo boxing after dark debut
Both barerra as and McKinney were young McKinney was only 30
30 was old for the smaller weight classes in those days.

I'm glad you said that. It is exactly what I was thinking.
It certainly was a hard fight, but Barerra was in control for almost all of it.
Awesome fight
McKinney, before the fight, thought he could punk Barrera. He had no idea who he was dealing with. All McKinney did was make it personal.
Imagine Barrera vs McCullough?
is evident that the comentariest favor the black guy
estos referis y comentaristas valen pa nada, lo bueno es que estados unidos se esta ya undiendo como pais y ya no tendremos que soportarlos, los veremos limpiando coches o trabajando en las cosechas , VIVA CHINA< VIVA RUSIA, viva un mundo libre !!
Barrera : típico Guerrero azteca , si señor !!!!!
Roy Jones estado de parte del Moreno estaba diciendo lo va a lastimar ya lo lastimó pero se llevó la sorpresa perdió
Roy Jones who was overrated and ruled a bum division with no elite fighters is very biased and should not be commentating
Mckenny was also the boxer who turned his back to Luisito Espinosa in feont of the referee at the start if their fight then knocked down twice.
At the beginning when they said berrra was taken over he was missing a lot good defense by Mckinney
In round 6 Barrera threw 113 mostly (high quality) power punches at a 55% connect percentage, and still got criticised by his corner at the end of the round lmao
Bout guys good. No bullS** .
Respect for kennedy warrior and a good boxer barrera refused meet him after the fight so i am glad he was beaten badly twice by jones
Ni maiz amigo Mc was trashing barrera in the conference room. He started the bad vibe.
BARRERA LE GANO PERO SI EL MUCHACHO LLEGA SER MEJOR DIFIL QUE LE GANARA Y CON TODO Y ESO LE SALIO DURO
Como que difícil si es todo lo queda. O loque tenia.,
Le quito lo mamon al moreno ja ja ja 🤪
This looked like a easy fight for Barrerra to me. I see this totally different from everyone else. It was nothing like barrerra v morales.
One of the most deserved and satisfying ass whippings in boxing. McKinney was being a complete asshole for no reason and got merq'd because of it.
Roy Jones Jr didn't give Barrera a chance from the beginning. I thought they suppose to be neutral.
Marco did a Pacquiao on Mckinney in the 8th. Pulled away like he was gonna reset then threw a straight right and put him on the mat. Barrera said before his 1st fight with Pacquiao that Manny reminded him of his younger self. Of all the great Mexican fighters in that era, Marco in his prime was the most explosive and for me, the best.
