    because i dont believe Morales was a smart fighter easily dragged into a war and easy to tag cleanly

    he has good variation to his attacks and he could counter punch but he did not have the discipline and smarts to beat Hamed IMO where as Barrera did

      Morales is not cute enough to beat Hamed IMO and he is not disciplined enough to stay away from him for his own well being

      Barrera was a much more intelligent patient fighter

          Morales was a smart fighter you can hardly say he wasnt,
          yeah he got into wars and did get hit but technically i think he was brillant,
          i would love to see a fight between him and the prince but i couldnt see the prince pulling it off to be honest,
          he had **** all heart and against a prime vicious quick erick morales, he would of lost his bottle very early in that fight.
          Although the prince was unbelivably unpredictable and was extremely quick i could see erik gettin hit alot in this fight.

          Though the result would be Morales by UD

            if Morales was disciplined enough to follow a game plan against PAC, in a house full of frenzy, coming off a loss and eager to redeem himself, im sure he could have handled the same temptation against Naz...

            and Hamed wasn't a defensive wizard himself either...who's to say a rampaging, prime El Terrible is something that Hamed could handle?

              hey the fight could go either way and Morales would have his success without a doubt but i just feel his machismo lack of defence and come foward aggression would be his undoing

              i can see Morales putting it on Hamed big time and Hamed falling behind but Morales paying late on walking into a big shot

                like i said in my initial post bro, Hamed has that punchers chance that should not be discounted but i think he would have a tougher time with EM than with MAB just because of the different dimensions that Morales has in his arsenal...it would be one heckuva brawl when EM engages and it could be also a clinic if he decided to work off that jab and take rounds...and as you stated, as good a beard as El Terrible possesed, Naz hit like a jackhammer..


                its a shame Hamed never fought him

                  initially i thought Morales because when Hamed is put under preassure he loads up and swings wide but then i had a rethink because Morales was very easy to hit and much more inclined to get into a war than most fighters and if you are to put Hamed on the backfoot and preassure him you need to be able to take his power because plenty of fighters have been KTFO trying to walk Hamed down Kelly,Ingle to name a few and i dont believe any FW in the world was capable of taking Hamed's power if he landed flush

                  Morales was hit flush by McCullough,Barrera,Pacman,Chi,Kelly,and he was not as cute of a fighter as Barrera he was easier to hit he was easier to trap on the ropes and he just did not have the Boxing brain of Barrera allthough he was a tremendous fighter and a real warrior im a fan of MAB,Morales,Naz,JMM,Pac, all of them but

                  who you got
                  morales always beats hamed, prime v prime, shot v shot, overweigt v overweight... whatever.
