    I can't think of someone that I respect more than Morales.
    A walking legend,he came out of retirement out of shape and after so many wars and almost immediately went after monster Maidana.I was among those thinking he will be brutalized,instead he gave el chino all he could handle.Then took young and strong garcias punches all night.Same Garcia who broke p4p Khan into pieces.
    For those who label me as a mex hater,take note; Morales ranks on top of my list of favorite fighters along with Barrera and Marquez .

    Ain't that the truth.
    And for the people who discuss Khan-Barrera as if it's actually of any significance,go watch Ali-Berbick then come back and tell us how Wlad would destroy Ali.

    Morales = My favourite fighter in the last 20 years.

    a True Legend, but should never have comeback - even in his current shadow of his former self he's giving these kids a lesson in what it takes to be a warrior.

    Talking of legends,just before the fight(programme) came on Sky,they were showing s football programme and they showed Redondo's marvellous piece of skill against Man Utd.
    A fabulous player who should have had so much more were it not for injuries.

    Morales was in a very close fight till garcia took the last 2 I think, it wasnt as wide as the judges thought imo.

    Morales was beating Garcia up before getting caught.
    :lol: Khan just took a beating.

    I was wondering the other day how Morales would do with Heredia. An in shape Morales could do well against most IMO.
