    I love that knockout. Tito does exactly what he was supposed to do when Hopkins missed with the left uppercut. He counters with the hook almost immediately, but Bernard's right hand is there to catch it, blocking the Trinidad left hook and then bringing it across to drop him all in the same motion. Brilliant. Technical perfection.

    there is one, I think it's the second espadas fight, where he starts bouncing back and forth, backs up against the ropes, throws an uppercut combination and just steps aside to let espadas fall down, like he knew it was going to happen that way. SO SLICK.

    Morales had a cool punch vs that cano kid recentyly, he threw a straight right I think then changed in while throwing it because he saw an opening hitting the guy flush.

    look at the way he feints his way inside and smacks the **** out of Trinidad. Morales could only dreaming of pulling of something like that.

    Some people need to learn what a pushing a punch is ffs. Yes Morales has pulled off short inside right's before though he's not known for inside fighting but he has thrown short inside right's with great effect in his earlier career.

    i think people underestimate morales's skill in punching some of the feints he does is brilliant iv learnt alot of shots from morlaes my personal favourite is faking the overhand backhand then following up with an uppercut

    but they are both great
