      Morales pretty much came to the conclusion, im not gonna win this fight, so i might as well just sit here... and when u get millions of dollars in a paycheck... get up and TRY...

      its not fair to throw at me the fact that im not a fighter and i dont know whats its like.. because i can also throw back.. your right IM NOT a fighter.. i didnt choose that profession... he did... he chose to sign for the fight.. he chose accept millions of dollars... and he just sat there and shook his head.. i didnt like that...

      but with that said all respect to morales, i know he was older, and had been through tons of wars during his reign, hes an ATG... and deserves all the respect... my only quarrel was... he could of gotten up.





      reed, i'd much rather prefer El Terrible going out on his shield and tryin than Marco running for 12


      and to be fair to Morales, he had already gone something like 30+ rounds with Manny whereas Marco had 4 years to recover only to run like a little beyotch for his 'redemption' fight

          It's not as good as Vazquez/Marquez trilogy, just because with Barrera/Morales, it really was very hard to get both of them in there having a good night on the same night.

          None of the three fights really showed a true even competition, except for maybe the first, but that fight was awfully sloppy, and just a straight brawl. If you are a fan of skillful fighting, you might not like this one as much as other people do.

          Still though... this trilogy laughs at and spits on the Gatti/Ward trilogy. Believe that.

            That makes sense, I forgot that's the thread was about.

            I guess I'm not better than idiot nuthuggers who jump in a thread and defend their fighter at all costs, regardless what context a comment is made in.

            I have another thing that's bad about him. Everything that happened the night he fought Zahir Raheem... man, that was just dismal.

              You're just making it sound better bro, Gatti-Ward I is probably my favorite fight up to this point.

              And to be honest I love a good bloody brawl every now and then.
