Raheem was robbed against Juarez... he is undefeated if you look at it that way!

newsflash: Raheem has no legs and will get KO'd within 6 rounds in a boring mis-match....

what happened to Morales taking on all comers??? I thought he was gonna go after a lightweight belt vs. Johnson, now he's taking on a no-hope featherweight instead? Sad stuff, El Horrible is not my favorite fighter but I always respected him for fighting top guys in every division, fighting Raheem is the beginning of the end of the EL Horrible era within the upper echelons of the sport

Raheem has skills...I think you're downplaying his ability. He's not a complete joke, and he made Rocky Juarez look like a giant *****. He can box and has pretty good footwork, but I think Morales will take a comfortable decision over him.

I think Morales could have taken a bigger fight as well, but I don't think he's ready to go up to 135 quite yet. There are still fights to be made at 130 and that's what he's going after.

I mean come one Sac...dudes taken on Chavez, Hernandez, Barrera and Pacquiao all in a row...thats pretty crazy. If anyone deserves a lighter hearted fight in order for another superfight its Erik.

I give morales credit! he is not a coward he wants to give pacquiao a rematch because he is a man of his word! before going up to 135 now that is sportsman like.

The fight's set for Sept 10 and what about PacMan he's fighting a Mexican whom I've never heard of before and I'm from Tijuana, Mexico. El Terrible's giving PacMan his re-match just like he said he would in Dec. and after that he's moving up to 135.

Is this for sure about the rematch with Pac, I still would have like to see Erik Morales Vs. Juan Manuel Marquez before the year ended.

**xcaret** · 07-13-2005, 03:08 PM

ooo, a rematch of erik and pac, nice.

**DiegoFuego** · 07-13-2005, 03:35 PM

Raheem is no joke. He got screwed over hard against Juarez. The referee was in his pocket the whole fight. I still think Morales wins this one on points.

Next in line for Morales... Zahir Raheem???
