    lol I figured that, maybe he has become too reliant on his power.

          Do they have it on youtube? I feel fighters like Margarito for example are the same way, they look faster & more accurate in sparring. But when they get into the ring they just try to bulldoze their opponent.

            i think they have him vs the santa cruz brothers only...

            but when morales was using him as sparring for pacquiao, you couldnt tell he was fighting a "wild slugger", but a very skilled boxer puncher.....

            they say valero was beating the **** outta kid diamond in the gym before his last fight...

                The real difference is Valero is a champion he's in his prime the habits he picks he's doing now will carry though his career not saying he can't change but there will be a point where it'll be too late anyway, Kirkland is still a prospect he's still developing his technique. He's still learning alot and will get alot better when he gets a trainer like Roach, McGirt, Steward etc.
