    I agree, if you put Maidana and Crolla in the ring I wouldn't back Crolla... however Maidana by the way he fights, isn't the type of fighter who would expose an ageing fighters flaws. Morales is still world class in terms of going in and brawling, taking your best shots and beating you in the face back. The guy is a legend in that regard. However.. he is ripe for someone to get in the ring and out box him technically.

    Will be rooting for Crolla, still think Morales has enough in the tank to beat him though.

    yes but as fighters in the fight game you need to make what you can health is priceless when you put the gloves down you want something to show for it imo right ?, and it makes me wonder what morales is being paid ? but as i said before good luck to him i just cant see him out boxing morales or knocking him out, joe got his work cut out here imo

    Crolla is tough and will take the fight to Morales. I don't think crolla will get stopped. Morales 96-94

    i kinda disagree with this, if Morales was totally shot the later rounds would of caught up with him, but he saw out the 12 rounds, i don't think Morales is ''as shot'' as people think, although nowhere near what he was but still way to much for Crolla, IMO of course

    For sure mate, this is win-win in many ways for Crolla. Regardless of the result, if he does himself justice (which no doubt he will) it can only be a good thing for his career. Paydays will follow for the lad.

    They've got their work cut out of course, but I think he's got a chance. :good
