Just Hang Up the Gloves Morales...Go Out on Top!!
Like Marsellus Wallace told Butch:
I think you are gonna find, when this **** is over ... I think you're gonna find yourself one smiling mother****er. The thing is, Morales, right now, you've got ability. But painful as it may be, ability don't last. And your days are just about over. Now, that's a hard mother****ing fact of life. But it's a fact of life your *** is gonna have to get realistic about. See, this business is filled to the brim with unrealistic mother****ers. Mother****ers who thought their *** would age like wine. If you mean it turns to vinegar, it does. If you mean it gets better with age, it don't. Besides, Terrible, how many fights you think you got left in you anyway? Two? Boxers don't have an "old timer's league". You came close, but you never made it, and if you were gonna make it, you would have made it before now.
lol

I can appricate the fact that Morales has still got 'it' as he proved against Maidana. But, I dont feel him fighting another massive puncher in Matthysse is going to help him prolong his career

I don't even know those two other guys Vargas and Lopez do they have good records?
Vargas is a good prospect and Lopez is a solid fighter. It should be a very good fight!
