What happened to Morales vs Mayweather?

[Tyson2k7]

Morales coming off a massive win over Barrera and Mayeather destroying Corrales. Why did the Super fight not happen? Mayweather usually has the reach and height/speed advantage at the lower weights but surprisingly Morales is equall in reach and height.

Does anybody here know the story on this?

My best guess is that it would have been a money dispute, regardless of if it got to that point. These two have pretty sizeable egos. At the time, I BELIEVE both were undefeated and it would have been a really big fight. Not to mention that both might have had a feeling it's not the EXACT right time as someone would have gotten beaten and the money might not have been what they wanted it to be.

Hard to say, as you rarely hear about this match.

Just speculation.

Do you really think after seeing what Floyd did you Corrales that Barrera's team wanted to put him anywhere near Floyd?... Hell no

[ShermanKlump]

They were the same size, so you know how that goes..

Morales is great but he would have gotten his ass beat.

I think Arum couldnt work out the weight at the time, Mayweather wasnt going to come down in weight for a Morales fight, He couldnt even come down to 128 at the time for a Naz fight so no way would he have come down to 122 or 126 for a Morales fight.

Doesn't mean the fight couldn't or shouldn't have happened.

morales was at 122..floyd was at 130..and a big 130 fighter..i dont think the fight was even realistically possible

Cuz Floyd wudda handed Morales' ass to em...with all due respect

Guys, they were way off in weight. Morales would have had to come up like 2 weight classes to fight Mayweather. It would have been a mismatch on paper. It's competitiveness on fight night it's anyone's guess, no one really knows or cares.
