Morales fought Maidana in 2011, 5 months after Maidana had just been soundly beaten by Khan. Morales was a huge underdog in that fight, people were saying he was too old and past his prime to survive Maidana but instead Morales put on a virtuoso performance, outboxing Maidana in many of the rounds.
The fight went to scorecards and Maidana was awarded a Majority Decision - two judges scored the fight for him while another judge had it as a draw. It was a close fight, Maidana definitely had his moments too although at times he looked overwhelmed by an old Morales who was fighting with only one good eye since his other eye was swollen and shut from round 3 onwards. I had that fight as a draw 114-114, 6 rounds a piece. Who do you have winning that one?
