    I didn't find out about this til exactly 2 minutes ago, am I the only one who finds this ridiculous? Erik is 45 years old, I've seen absolutely no training clips at all, its been a full decade since hes been in the ring...

    This can and probably will end horribly...

    Its, uh, a real fight and not an exhibition?

    Nothing to like here, for me.

    What in the mesquite-smoked blazes..??

    Don't get me wrong, this is a straight banger matchup...if the year is 2006.

    Every great fighter has one last great fight in him and my money is on Morales. Expect Erik to come in fat and get worked early. Then, as the fight goes on he’ll start getting stronger - having been fighting himself into shape. The fight will now become a war and Erik will be in his native habitat. By the time the fight is over Erik might lose the fight on the cards but he’ll have won the war :headbang:

    Maybe this should be a 6 round eating contest instead, they have been training for if and it will be less detrimental to their cognitive health.

    Would have been a smoker back in the day but now it's a hideous display. If Salido needs the pesos he shoulda rematched Loma for the load they offered him.

    Coming up this weekend.

    Have to say I'm quite fascinated, as a big admirer of both fighters. At least they're only boxing each other, and for just six rounds, instead of trying to rejuvenate themselves for serious campaigns.
