    At WW 147lbs IMO Morales may have a bit of the advantage. JMM failed at 147 and Soto might be too slow at WW, he and Morales more or les have same height and reach but Morales has the better chin.

      morales is done. he shouldnt be fighting anymore.

      Did he become the first mexican boxer to win 4 division titles? I know marquez, morales, & barerra are in a pitiful race to try & one up chavez sr.

        I would like to see that ...

        rematch David Diaz? I think he won a close one on thier first fight, but in case they do rematch and wins do you think he can fight anyone I mentioned earlier ...

        147 fight sounds good but would they (EM & JMM) be at their best around 140?

          I'd like to see him fight JMM or soto at 140-147. Morales was a little bit slow but he's still have his boxing skills.

            no bro the Mexican record is still 3, I think Marquez has the best chance to win a 4th if he fights at 140...

              I think there are several that have a good chance of win a 4th. Soto, JMM, montiel.

              Morales looked good. Good boxing skills, but slow. I dont think he has a chance against soto or marquez, those guys are at there prime. Unless morales drops some pounds and trains hard for the next year, he might have a chance. I think he can still give fights against b class fighters if he trains hard enough. Morales looked just great compared to what most of us were especting.

                  Morales was great but that was a long time ago. If he continues I hope he comes back slow and doesn't jump into a money fight.

                    I agree Erik should at least go down to 140 ...

He would get beat up by any elite fighter but still it was great seeing him in action again, which at first i was totally against! If he is gonna continue fighting he needs to to cut weight. at least make 140 because he was lookin a little pudgy haha...
                      maybe he can get in better shape in the next few fights and make a run at 140 I bet he'd beat David Diaz if he got his but in shape.
