    Eric : From the frying pan to the fire

    Erik Morales is the epitome of the old-school prize fighter, the type that is not shy about fighting one mean hombre after another.

    It was just Nov. 27 when Morales engaged Marco Antonio Barrera over 12 grueling rounds in a fight won narrowly by Barrera, a fight that probably will be selected fight of the year by most boxing publications . . .

    Like it or hate it people, Erik is a WARRIOR. And I'm giving him props for having the balls to seek his destiny.

          This is what I like with Morales. A fight is a fight like business is business. There is one more thing I like in this guy, his killer instinct. If he sees his opponent hurt, he will give everything he got no matter what round they are in.

            Erik is a man's man.

            He is a warrior, he dont like to talk out of his ass, he says what he means and he does what he says. He dont talk smack if he dont mean it, and he is gentleman if you are to him. But if you talk **** to him, he dont swallow his pride even if he looses. He'll hate you till the end.

            I like when he is fighting sometimes he'll get hit and crowd goes... oooooooh... and he feels obligated to answer back. Plus he considers himself a computer nerd.. how cool is that?

              Moralles is no underdog, he is more experienced and is quite capable of commanding the fight against manny.

                He might be an underdog for the betting boxing public but certainly not in terms of skills and experience.

                  Erik deserves RESPECT IN ALL CAPS!

                  What I like most about the latest development is that Pacquiao is given the chance to face a bigger marquee (much, much, much bigger) fighter than Marquez--- no less than a Morales--- while Marquez and Baristain are left with having to "persuade" some little known also champ from the lower weight classafter raising a "purse issue".

                  This is evidence (tough to controvert) that Pacquiao is the bigger stellar attraction than Marquez and that Marquez's refusal to face Manny in the form of asking for more money than Manny has no leg to stand on.
