In a press Conference in Argentina Former Super Bantam, Featherweight, and Super Featherweight champion Erik Morales spoke about his future plans.
About a 4th fight against Barrera
I dont think it will ever happen because i dont think they will dare to fight me again, They've beat me and i doubt they will risk it and fight me one more time. I simply doubt it because they dont have the guts.
About going up to 135 lbs.
I am going to 135, but before im gonna stick around at 130 a little bit more and see what i can do around here. One last fight. We are going to see if Manny Pacquiao wants to fight me. But if not i will go up to 135 in September. The lightweight champion is my Friend Jose Luis Castillo. Since he is having trouble making weight he will move up and i will go and fight for the belt he vacates.
About discrimination in Boxing
Unfortunately discrimination does exist. Us Mexicans have to work a little more.
About his Visit to Buenos Aires, Argentina
I like the emotion the Argentenians have for their atheletes. If the fans for boxing are the same as the ones for Soccer believe me i envy you. The only bad thing is you cant drink at the soccer game.
