It makes perfect sense foo'..
Chill out w/ the Floyd nuthuggin'.
come on man, I didnt disrespect you so dont disrespect me. I hate it when people say stuff like "nuthuggin". Anyways, I try to make good points. How can you say that Floyd has no chance of stopping him at SFW? You act like Floyd was the same guy he is at WW. He had very good power at SFW and let his hands go. His speed was off the charts. I didnt say that he would stop him for sure but how can you say that it definatly wont happened. He stopped a ton of cats at that weight and EM's style would make it easy for him to get stopped if he makes mistakes. Look at all the shots he took vs MAB, now think about Floyd doing that at SFW? Come on now
Oh and as for the fight, at 130 I have to say Floyd by UD in a fairly close fight. You will have a hard time finding a bigger Morales fan then me, but I think Floyd outboxes him.
at 135? give me a break. erik lost to raheem and david diaz at 135. floyd would be on another level, and probably score a late KO.
at 130? now we're talking. i still think mayweather would still outbox morales, and probably win a wide UD, but morales had a pretty good chin in the early part of his 130lb career, and some boxing smarts too. he'd survive and maybe trouble mayweather in spots like castillo did, but he wasn't a pure offensive machine like corrales, he'd do better. mayweather by UD.
WOW...so let me get this right...Zahir Raheem can shut a washed up Morales out..but Mayweather would win 8 rounds to 4?...:sad2:
:pat:
A prime Morales @ 130 :D
Erik never had a prime at 135, even at 130 he was long in the tooth, ****ed up hands, and was usually weight drained from balloning up 40-50+ for years.
Mayweather would either UD him or stop him with a body shot, I'd bet on the distance.
I know that was the ghost of Morales...but that was the same Morales who beat Pac....
if this was the GHOST of Morales..and Zahir beat him for 12 rounds straight...u dont think Mayweather would win by KO or TKO??...Zahir made it look easy but Mayweather wouldnt?....lol
first you say "Morales k.o or decision wouldn't surprise me either"
then you turn around and say "That was the ghost of Erik Morales."
which is it?....looks like you're the NOOB!!:feedback:
I can't see it. Morales has alot of heart and a great chin to go with that. Mayweather would win a U.D, 8-4 type of U.D I'd say.
If its at 130, prime 4 prime, I'd lean towards Floyd by decision, but a Morales k.o or decision wouldn't surprise me either.
Floyd ain't knocking out Morales though.
That dont make sense. Dont play Floyd like he didnt have any power at SFW. He could pop at that weight and he basically has every advantage over EM at that weight. EM doesnt do anything better, including power & strength to me
If its at 130, prime 4 prime, I'd lean towards Floyd by decision, but a Morales k.o or decision wouldn't surprise me either.
Floyd ain't knocking out Morales though.
co sign
might look like Chavez/Whitaker
Morales' right hand is quick enough to trouble Mayweather, and he's very good at attacking.
