Motivated by an earlier post, maybe we could up the ante on Antonio? Two wiry boxer-punchers. Not your usual mythical matchup, but intriguing?
It is a great fight, would be savage. I think Morales has the broader skillset and that would get him home but he was kind of a crazy person in his prime. I do get a feeling looking at those featherweight lats that Antonio might make things miserable for Morales with a body attack and it is twelve rounds, which is not a long time for these two - i'm surprisingly torn but I want to say Morales would win a trilogy, if that's not too much of a cop out.
Bump Very tough fight for Morales. Esparragoza was very gifted offensive fighter and with heavy hands to boot. Part of me thinks Esparragoza has a shot at an upset but I think Morales would be able to dig deep enough to eek out a decision win in a grueling scrap. Great match up.
Every time I saw that dudes name back in the day I thought of Asparagus. Anyway, good fight. Leaning towards Morales
People lean towards Morales because there is much more footage of him. Not sure about this bout as Esparagoza was also pretty quick as well.
