Comments Thread For: Erik Morales Wants Marquez, Juan Manuel Says Maybe

[Mr. Chago]

looked average, you could tell he still had a bit of weight to come of thou. 147 isn't this right weight.

He said after the fight that he plans to go down to 140 lbs, or gain muscle...it better be go down to 140-135 lbs....

[catalinul]

Wouldn't wanna see it,Erik would get beat bad.

Don't know where he wants to go with this comeback.

[Sweet Jesus]

JMM knocks him out at any weight.

[Jim Jeffries]

I'd lose respect for Marquez if he takes this fight.

[KickAzz]

i don't understand jmm...

team pacquiao said if floyd won't fight him, then they'll fight jmm, but then jmm starts talking about blood testing, when they know already that that was the reason why pac/floyd fell apart. I don't get how jmm says team pac don't wanna fight him, when team jmm are the ones that brought up something to make the fight not happen.

jmm should stay at 135 lbs anyways. he'll get destroyed at WW. even morales has a decent chance against to beat a blown up 135 lbs jmm.

Morales will get destroyed by both. It sounds to me like somebody is broke and looking for a payday....

I know this goes against Popular Opinion But i think this is a Perfect fight for two Legends at the CrossRoads of their Careers.. and i think most of yous are idiots anyways, so who cares about Popular Opinion. This matchup reminds me of a Gatti v Ward type fight that could be even more exciting since we know neither Man will Back Down or Run from eachother due to a little Something called Mexican Pride. Then add the fact that Whoever Wins this Fight will be in for at least one more Big Payday and it makes Perfect sense. Hell, if the Fight is good enough the first time Morales and Marquez may be able to Parlay that into a Rematch for even More money. It is true that Unlike Gatti v Ward, Morales v Marquez will be on some Kind of PPV but thats the Nature of the Beast nowadays with Boxing. Morales challenging Cotto is just Morales trying to show the World he is as Good as PacMan but is more an Envy Thing. Morales has a Ton of Victories against a bunch of Great Fighters but like JMM, Erik is upset that Manny gets all the Attention. Kinda reminds me of the way Morales was upset at Barrera and how he had to KO Junior Jones to prove he was better, but GodDammit thats why i Love the Guy. I also hope they Sign the fight because i alwasy wanted to see who is better anyway. Either way, it makes no difference how much Anyone on here Disapproves of the Matchup Happening because if the Money is Right, It will Happen.. How else would you explain MayweatherJr v Marquez

[JOM'S]

I wont mind seeing Erik versus JMM and I really think it will be very entertaining...

[kalokano]

would be interesting fight at 140. Morales looks out of shape at 147 with Alfaro although he still have heart and the moves to make it a good fight. money should not be a problem and golden boy promotions can make it if they really care about JMM. i'd watch this fight instead of the hopkins vs. roy jones which is going to be boring to death with lots of hugging and kissing heads.

[reneg_2]

JMM would kill him. Morales should stay out of the game at WW. maybe at 135 or 140 tops, he has a chance to be average, but his prime is long gone.
