Was Morales shot as shot comes or is Garcia really that good?

    55-45 in favor of Morales being over the hill for a while now

    Put Garcia in there @ 140 against Matthysse, JMM, Brandon Rios or even Mike Alvarado, now that would be a good test to see how good he is at that weight.

    Beating a SHOT Morales twice isn't a test.

    Any pro boxer can look sensational hitting a heavybag.

    Oh, except for this guy:

    I think we could all agree Morales is not at his best, but I am perhaps one of the few that believe Morales could still make some noise to a certain extent. Many are saying he is shot and done, but I kind of disagree and could see Morales turn back the hands of time one more time, especially if he fights in a more comfort atmosphere(West Coast or his homeland) I think people are forgetting his Maidana performance who is one of the best in his weight class and even Cano, who put a good peformance against Paulie. Garcia could just be one of those guys that his numbers. I think Morales could land a good name one more time.

    The answer is very obviously Morales being shot, anybody clicking the Garcia being good option is only trolling, this isn`t to say Garcia is a bad boxer but its just that the main reason for the stoppage victory is the Morales shot to **** option.

    You only have to ask yourself how you think any version of Erik pre Raheem would do vs this version of Garcia, there`s your answer... Morales is simply on a different level to Garcia both at their best, any reasonable person knows this though I do expect some trolling here from the usual candidates ;)

    guys at 140 are too big and strong for morales. a guy like erik who is too tough for his own good will end up getting seriously hurt if he keeps fighting. he has lost 7 of his last 11 fights. and his prime weight was 3 to 4 divisions lower.

    Morales shot-to-pieces. Needs to fight someone not a china chin or a shot legend before making up my mind on how truly good he is. And no, a Judah fight won't prove ****.
