Erik Morales Hopes To Fight Juan Manuel Marquez Next

[Chew BackAtacha]

Maybe all Morales needed was a few years out the game to re-energise? he got the height/reach to be effective at the weight, if not the power

[Boxing Scene]

Yeah right.

morales never wanted to face marquez when morales was champ,,jmm was mandaroty for ever with hamed,and hamed also never wanted to face him,now morales wants the money,i think jmm should take this fight as a tune up only and then fight a big fight

[K U Y I P]

give morales a chance people.a tune-up fight first, maybe against a not so on the top contender or even an upcoming pretender will do. let him take-off those ring-rust and maybe after 1 more fight he can take on jmm.

[El Jesus]

I aint giving a morales a chance at nothing, dude is finished and at this point, hes just risking his health.

man.... as much i as am big fan of erik but.. damn... marquez...
this guy walks around 180 pounds or even more...
morales aint got it nomore he may be young.. but too many wars he's been in
dunno erik may be shot

[Da Hammer]

Morales is my favorite fighter ever but man stay retired!!!! It's not fair to the public and much more importantly its not fair to yourself to go out there and not be everything that you used to be!!! You put on a show everytime you fought which made us all love and respect you but at this point your career is done! You dont need this fight!

If morales does it, I will support and root for him but he is going to get his ass kicked.

The fight should have been made back in 04 and 05 but it didnt happen. JMM was offered 750k and he didnt want it and fought some bum for 30k instead.

morales offered JMM a fight and jmm turned it down


or actually i should say jmm's management turned it down. They were making some really dip****ted decisions around that time and JMM just agreed with whatever they did.

idk morales power seemed to slide a lot at 130 and 135. He was never a huge huge puncher but at 122 and 126 he had decent power. By 130 it didnt seem like it was there anymore and he wasnt getting KO's like he used to.
