[enegue]

No matter what we all say here, the fact remains that Barrera has officially bested Morales, 2 bouts to 1.

morales will win the WBA belt, but it means nothing. people will remember his loss to barrera in years to come, not winning the WBA's belt. as a comeback fight, however, he needs to get his confidance back.

bro, have you seen the fight of sanchez and navarro? they fought in the 130 lb. division. navarro knocked out sanchez in the 8th round. what do you think of him?

sorry bro, i haven't seen that fight.

The only thing what can completely erase the loss to Barrera is if Morales moves up to 140 and KOs the likes of Floyd, Cotto, Gatti, and Tszyu all in one year..

honestly, i don't see morales beating those guys at 140.

One of the reasons Barrera was able to beat Morales, is that Morales is NOT a physically strong Jr. Lightweight. Sharp, Hard punching, skilled yes. But NOT physically strong.

Chavez and Hernandez were clearly the stronger men when they fought Morales.

3k is proven at 130 lbs. I think he has a real shot at Morales. Especially if Morales is smarting from his loss.

Remember how off Morales looked against In Jin Chi.

Erik Morales has returned from his vacation in Argentina. Yesterday in a press conference in Tijuana he anounced that he will fight on the 19th of March in a big fight scheduled for 12 rounds promoted by Top Rank.

Erik said the fight could even be for a world title belt. He will talk to Top Rank about that.

About his fight with Barrera the former World champ said, "I believe that was just a bad night that will not happen again."

Morales also said certain boxing experts have reached him to tell him that he has always been loyal to the WBC but the WBC has not responded in kind. He said they made him see that certain judges and referee's chosen by the WBC "have helped me find my self in the worst nights of my career. Those people have told me I should feel betrayed by the WBC."

Erik said he holds no resentment against Sulaiman and that he doesnt believe what the "experts" told him.

However he did say that he felt maybe it was time to take a different route, and now that he is not a world champ he could fight for the championship of another major belt.

When asked which belt would he like to fight for erik responded, "WBA" (note: 3kBattery is wba champ at 130lbs).

any news about Erick staying at 130 is good news to me, more time for Pac to catch up with him...

EM against MAB is 2-1 anybody saying that EM is better, at this point in time are totally wrong, MAB has proved after 36 rounds with EM who is the better fighter at this point in time...

but time for MAB is clicking fast and the 4th may say another story...

THAT nad he was 12 pounds slower than Barrera. I love Barrera and will always be a fan, I hate Morales but I still think he's better. I'm a fan of his skillz but not of his character. If you putthem both in the same training regimen, Morales takes it.
