Mexican boxing legends and IBHOF members in Canastota, New York, Érik ¨Terrible¨ Morales and Marco Antonio Barrera could perform a four-round exhibition bout on January 15, 2021 in Dallas, Texas in an event they hope to host with assistance of fans.
Morales and Barrera met in Las Vegas, Nevada (Mandalay Bay and MGM Grand) three times in their career, the first of which in February 2000 with Morales' split decision win for the WBC super bantamweight world title. In June 2002, Barrera achieved the triumph by unanimous decision for the WBC featherweight title and they closed the trilogy in November 2004 with a victory closed by a majority decision by Barrera, that time for the WBC super featherweight world title.
