Comments Thread For: Erik Morales: Is His Health at Risk With Marcos Maidana?

[jetgeomcx]

i am "terribly" worried for erik here.
his corner should be quick with the towel at the first sign of danger......
erik already quit against pac on the 3rd of their 3rd fyt at jr litewt.....how much more at jr welter now with hard hitting maidana.

That's why I'm not too worried. Morales is ancient. he'll box Maidana's ears off a little bit, eventually get caught, and he'll know when to fold them.

I don't think Maidana is all that great, but the dude is a f***ing killer and I thoroughly expect him to decapitate Eric Morales. He pushed Khan to the absolute brink, just imagine what he'll do to an old Morales.

****** article. Every fighters health is at risk every time they fight. If the doctor clears him, and he feels he can win the fight...he has the right. If he gets hurt, its something he feels is worth the risk. There's a good chance he'll box Maidana silly

When did Maidana become the God of all things?

He'll do what Pacquiao did to Del la Hoya, and what Tyson did to Holmes, really he's in their league now???????

I guess struggling with Chop Chop over 12 was just an anomoly.

Can anyone name the last opponent Maidana blew away who's elite, world class, highly ranked or highly thought of even?

It's no more than a shot fighter vs a hype job, no different than the typical fight we're being fed these days.

If there is indeed an injury to his brain, he shouldn't fight and tests will show a problem. Other than that, people need to shut up. This isn't Ray Oliveria were talking about. Maidana is not a cold blooded killer but David Izon in 140 lb package.

I actually think Erik has a chance of pulling it off if he boxes; that being said I dont think he will box and end up brawling as usual which in turn may put him in a position to get hurt.

Yes it is,Maidana is a cold hearted guy,he's going too kill Morales

In the words of Ivan Drago "If he dies..... he dies"

A prime Morales would box his ears off.

WTF? a prime morales is a 122-126 lber....

If I recall Maidana clobber Victor ortiz.
