Comments Thread For: Sulaiman Pleads With Erik Morales To Consider Retirement

[Medved]

The Boxing fans have been begging WBC to stop being corrupt and force JCC Jr. to fight someone! Along with all their other diamond and triple platinum southeast FOCAX jr Belts

I totally agree with you!!! Green K

On another note...somebody please plead with Sulaiman to retire!!!!

Don't forget, just like with Morales, he's in a family business. There's no doubt but that Morales should retire. He should not have returned to the ring after his original retirement. He still has to reckon with whatever neurological damage that return will have caused him.

I saw the recent Morales only when winning the 140 lb belt which was so obviously contrived for him to win. I truthfully did not know it was Morales, having switched on after the fight began, and assumed the name was just another guy. It wan't until I saw his close-up face when he left the ring that I saw a sad likeness. I was appalled, as I had already noted that he was very slow, ponderous and easy to hit.

Morales, in his last fight against MannyP showed clearly that he was done. He's n ever taken so much punishment before retirement (except againt Pacquiao) as he routinely does these days, against lesser opponents. Your comments (if he read them) would only encourage him to endure more beatings-up.

Mind you, I don't know him, it's just a humane feeling I have.

He should retire because he has nothing left to prove, but he's still very competitive and with better conditioning he could still make great fights.

An old and way past prime Morales is still a lot better than WBC protegee Chavez Jr.

Jose Sulaiman, the president of the World Boxing Council, is pleading with Erik "El Terrible" Morales (52-8, 36KOs) to seriously consider a full retirement from boxing. Morales, who took punishment during last Saturday's decision loss to Danny Garcia and failed to make weight for the fight, is considering one more fight in the fall, in Tijuana, before retiring for good.

Take your own advice Jose Sulaiman, 30+yrs at the WBC Pres helm is way too long.

The WBC...

One minute they are gifting Morales a belt by matching him against a nobody, then... when he turns up, out of shape and gets beaten by an average fighter like Garcia, they suddenly want him to retire.

Can't Sulaiman keep his dumb mouth shut for 24 hours. I guarantee the WBC would benefit from this. Just 24 hours.

[LaBéstia]

And we plead with YOU to retire Mr. Suleiman... please retire and stop destroying this sport.

Morales still has some fight left in him. Just because he lost this fight doesnt mean he his shot out or needs to hang it up. IMO he just did train like he should have. You could tell by looking at his body. IF he trains the right way, he could still beat some of the top 140 guys

[sammiza567]

retire bc nothing left to prove. its not a knock on morales to say he is faded.he is still basically elite nothing to prove el terrible my fav mexican fighter ever even over jmm.

[spoonwars]

Translation: Morales can no longer make money for the WBC, so retire.

You'll always be competive in fights, just want you to live a healthy future.
