    Zahir Raheem (the guy that beat Morales)... was actually a really good fighter!!

    He just never got his big break.

    Part of the Olympic boxing team that included Mayweather Jr and Zab Judah.

    Beat Erik Morales.



    Was 30 - 3.

    Lost a homecooking, split decision and got kod past his prime.

    It's unfortunate that someone just as talented as FMJ didn't get his big break.

      He could've easily gotten the decisions against Juarez and Freitas. He won both fights IMO.

          It's a piss take.

          Also, apparently Erik Morales was lined up to face Pacquaio but first he had to get through Raheem. But lost. Why didn't the Pacman and Raheem rumble?

                He was a good boxer, but that's a gross exaggeration.

                Because Morales/Pac II was a big money fight and brought far more excitement than a Pac/Raheem fight would have.
