    Terrible would close the distance and bombard this guy with right hands. There would be nowhere for this fool to hide, Terrible was one of the best coming forward. You never outboxed Terrible, never. It was a guaranteed bloodbath, fight till you die, brawl. Maybe when he was past his prime these guys might have had a chance.

    Possibly but there is no way he would look so much better than Rigo in the ring, fact is Hamed always made mistakes but he did not face level of MAB when he did MAB capitalized on those mistakes and beat Hamed with pure boxing, but with pure boxing he would not beat Rigo for sure since Rigo does not make mistakes like Hamed, MAB would have to make it "dirty" because he aint out boxing Rigo like he did Hamed, but could he beat Rigo yeah sure would he I'm not sure...not favoring Rigo but I'm not sure.

    He would beat everyone in the lighter weight divisions, except Rigondeaux. Rigondeaux has amateur victories (easy UD ones) over basically all the successful Super Bantamweight and Featherweights.

    He would easily outbox Morales. Rigondeaux is extremely good, more people would believe his greatness if he had more pro fights. As of now his amateur career + his current pro record makes me believe he is incredible.

    His performance against a 'very good' fighter showed me just how great his level of specialisation is in his craft. I was not expecting him to be that good.
    Rigo was not forced to even move up a gear, he cruise controlled to victory against Donaire. He was only slightly forced after the knockdown, and you saw how he readapted. I don't know if you've seen any of Rigo's offensive fighting with combinations etc. it's absolutely insane. I have a very strong idea of what Rigo is capable of. Having said that, I am yet to see how well he can adapt in general = something Mayweather is the king of.

    Morales' nemesis were defensive counter punchers.

    Nevertheless, Morales is skilled enough to catch some big shots to the chin of Rigo...Rigo does not have a good chin..

    "He ran doe."

    "Didn't stand toe to toe like the other warriors I fought, so that I can hit him."

    "Coward, stunk up the place. Thought he'd come to fight"

    All while sporting a bruised up face.

    Is the excuses Rigondeaux would have to put up with by fans and Morales after a 12 round schooling.

    But keep fantasizing since the fight can't happen anyway. A guy with 400+ amateur fights, 2 Olympic gold medals, world champion in 9 pro fights, Ring champion of his division in just 12 fights, got hit with 3-4 good shots in 12 rounds by the "best" fighter of the division and 2012 FOTY. But he gets bombarded with right hands by a guy who got schooled in his 20s by Zahir Raheem.

    Sure tell yourself Morales was a whole different beast in his early 20s, and that he was done in his late 20s, but miraculously comes back in his 30s against Maidana and Garcia and actually looks good. Just ignore that styles make fights and that is why Morales looked good against Maidana and Garcia but was schooled by Raheem.

    Aside from one poster giving a short take on what he would think would happen, the rest are just posting "Morales is god" type of posts.

    Terrible was shot by then dude, wake up and smell the coffee. And all that '400+ amatuer this, gold medal that' means absolute **** compared to the division back then of 122/126/120lber. Rig would have gotten owned and beat up.

    And let's talk about this. This just goes to show you the kind of animal Terrible was. He made the prime, top of the division 140lber's go through hell and back with a shot Terrible. So please, take your horse**** elsewhere. Terrbile did not 'magically come back' and 'look good' like you said, he was far from the man he was when he beat Pacman (his last good fight).

    No the **** they weren't, he had no nemesis. What fight did he get schooled? And I am not talking post 1st Pacman fight, after that he was shot.

    Morales best weight was 122 pounds. He would eventually put rigo-glass to sleep.

    Be honest with me, who did you predict would win between Rigondeaux and Donaire?

    Maidana and Garcia were not the top of the division. Garcia was on the come up and needed a name. Maidana had just come off losing to Khan. Top of 140 were Timothy Bradley, Amir Khan, and Peterson. Morales and his team wanted Maidana because they saw something they could take advantage of, that was their reasoning (Hmm I wonder what was it), maybe the same thing Roach/Khan saw in the Corley fight. Same with Garcia (Hmm, what was it in Garcia's style).

    Name the defensive counter punchers he fought in his career.
