[DET. IRONSIDE]

this fight doesn't prove jmm's ability at 140 lbs. morales isn't a natural 140 lbers either.

According to strong sources in Mexico, Erik "El Terrible" Morales will have the opportunity to win his fourth divisional title when he challenges Juan Manuel Marquez, the WBA and WBO lightweight king, on April 16 at the MGM Grand hotel and casino in Las Vegas. Initially, that date was reserved for Filipino Manny Pacquiao, but his fight with Shane Mosley was moved to May 7.

Erik Morales isn't any better than Shane Mosley now.

And yet JMM will go unskimmed by it.

i hope this fight doesn't happen,no point in this,,,marquez said in an interview in spanish radio that he doesn't think erick deserves to fight him,he hasn't done anything lately and also that when erick was champ back in the day,morales never gave him a chance so why should he now...i think he should just face guerrero or miguel vazquez,that guy is a decent boxer but nobody knows him

u right,these champs will be fighting chumps...pac facing mosley,jmm facing morales and cotto facing mayorga,not really competitive,although the morales fight isn't yet confirmed,the way i heard marquez talking i don't think it will happen,this is probably just rumors

Morales will KO Marquez

[El Chicano]

This is the missing link fight, needs to happen. Yes it's way past the time when it would have created much buzz, but who knows, it may turn out to be somewhat exciting.

[B.U.R.N.E.R]

This is big joke.

First Pac fights Shane and now this?

[mr_kamado10]

I guess this is a good fight since many believe Mayorga VS Cotto is a good fight, MArquez deserves a tune up before moving up in weight and fighting the like of KHAN, Bradely, alexander!!

a tune up....are u insane.....Casa, Katsidis, Diaz are already a tune up fight...and he's not getting younger anymore....he should fight at 140(fight even the weakest link at 140)

[_original_]

I want to see this for the simple fact of watching Marquez beat the living crap and KO Erik Morales.....and you know it's going to be a brutal KO

I'm always defending Marquez against the Morales and Barrera fans, this is gonna be sweet
