Your entire tall tale story is hilarious, thanks I needed a laugh!!

Erik Morales and Juan Manuel Marquez are both great warriors, and to attempt to say otherwise about one or the other is plain ignorance and bias. There's no need for your silliness here.

You're an idiot and no little about the sport. Nobody said they don't have great pasts. What was shared is Morales is the one guy Marquez chose to never fight. How great could that have been had two countrymen legends from Mexico sell out Texas Stadium or San Antonio or Mexico City in their prime and had war between each other. They came their primes at the same time, the same weight classes, and Marquez wanted no part of Morales. That fight not happening is like Leonard & Hearns never fighting, that's like Ali-Frazier never fighting. Something went down behind closed doors for Marquez to at least TWICE decline to fight Morales. Do your homework clown.

Morales felt Marquez was beneath him and in worthy to share a ring so when Marquez became popular Erik tried to piggy back but jmm returned the favor.
Wanna talk about who owned who in sparing go read up on how else terrible handed mayweather a beating

Not true at all. Marquez was always available and as recent as two years ago Marquez declined to fight Morales. Had nothing to do with one thinking the other was 'below' him, they were in their prime at the same time, both main event fighters, both champions at the same time.

Paez is a TOUGH fight to take as a retirement party fight......not too sure about picking Morales in this one.

He should have retired 5 losses ago, hasn't had any significant moments in his career in between those last 5 losses. He would have went down as one of the best. He has tarnished his legacy.
