Erik vs JMM prime for prime? Who you got?

[NoFear24]

This is a very interesting match up that I always wanted to see happen back in the day.

If this fight happened when Erik was in his prime for vs a Prime JMM, I see Morales battering him badly everytime JMM would hit him Morales would get mad and just charge with his offensive onslaught of faint right hand and combinations to throw JMM off.
Either way I think it would be good close tough fight for Erik Morales. He was just too good of a boxer and had a heart of a warrior and would always go to War even when he could easily outbox his opponents.
My vote is for ERIK MORALES
Who you guys got?

jmm would win every round.

[BOLLOCKS]

Morales would easily KO JMM in 8.

This is a bad styles matchup for Morales, JMM could be able to control the pace with his counterpunching and accuracy, Morales can't try to outbox JMM because JMM is the better boxer, I think it'd end in a close decision that could go either way, Morales has a better chance of scoring a knockout though, he was definitely more powerful.

erik knocks him out.

past prime erik was the only one to beat pacquiao out of the 3 greats from mexico.

erik is too much for marquez. marquez can't hurt erik. erik can hurt him.

marquez can't box erik either. morales isn't one dimensional like pacquiao.

easy night for erik. marquez is too overrated in this forum. he's a great fighter but he's not on erik's or marco's level.

There's no bad style matchup for a prime Morales. JMM has problems againts non-aggressive fighters.

Among the 3 Great mexicans Morales is the most complete. prime for prime i'll bet on Morales.


I used to hate him for kayoing Jamili but became a big fan after he dismantled JChavez and specially Famoso. His form againts famoso would UD JMM IMO.

Of course there was, he had trouble when he tried to outbox better boxers like he tried to do against Espadas in their first fight, and Morales was an aggressive fighter, even when he was boxing or brawling, which would have played into JMM's favor.

Past his prime Barrera gave Marquez a hard time and close fight, just by counterpunching Marquez (who leads alot for a counter puncher) and retaliating every time he got tagged. Morales wins a 8-4 type UD, maybe gets a stoppage on cuts or swelling.

[Jose Rizal]

Erik by SD. With his boxing level at his size, it wouldn't be easy for Marquez to counter him. Marquez would get in some good shots but so would Erik, and I think Erik edges him in the exchanges to win on points.

[The Gully Gad]

JMM could outbox him but if Morales was in warrior mode which i think he would be he'd catch up with JMM at some point and stop him..
