Is Sergio Mora one of the worst managed guys out there

Good points. Has to be management. Much like in The Fighter.

 

Well hes a **** fighter. Got a couple big fights and is still be talked about even though he hasn't done **** but Draw with Mosley won one fight with a old Forrest (R.I.P).

So yeah I would say hes getting managed pretty good considering his skill level.

 

He has a weird style. One of those styles that no one looks good against him so fighters avoid him.

Plus hes kind of big headed and goes after the biggest pay day he can even if he has to sit out. No?

 

He is featherfisted but he is also awkward and weird. I think he is a good boxer. He is at 160 now and his promoter is golden boy why not match him up with danny jacobs or try to get pirog, I know Pirog would love to fight him since he really wants to fight in the us.
The story behind the 2 years is that he was scheduled to fight pavlik but pavlik pulled out yet the fight remained possible, mora didnt want to ruin his chance so he waited for pavlik to be ready so they could fight, never happened though.

 

It's not his manager's fault. The guy has a very high risk/ low reward factor. He'll make anyone look bad even in beating him due to his very annoying style of boxing. The greatest manager ever couldn't help this guy since no one wants to fight him and I don't blame other fighters for not wanting to fight the guy, the guy fights shamefully. Runs and holds and herky jerks around like a clown. terrible to watch, I'd rather watch John Ruiz.

 

Sergio Mora screwed himself pretty bad when he backed out of a fight with Jermain Taylor. Mora backed out and Jermain fought Cory Spinks with Pavlik/Miranda on the undercard. Mora backed out because he did not believe he could win a decision in Memphis.

Pavlik and Mora were suppose to fight in the spring of 2009. The only person related to Team Pavlik who liked the idea was Bob Arum. Pavlik was in the process of negotiating a new deal with Top Rank, and the fight disappeared. We first heard about Pavlik's staph infection about this time, but I do not believe for a second that the infection stopped this fight. Pavlik's new deal with Top Rank gave him control over who he would fight, and I believe Kelly and Jack Leow made this stinker go away.

I just watched Forest/Mora 1 yesterday. Vernon looked soft and disinterested. Mora looked pretty sharp. I've seen Mora fight many times, and I beleive that was his best performance.

However, Mora does not belong at 154. He's only had 3 fights at that weight. His record there is 1-1-1, and only one of those fights was a good performance. Tehchnically Mora has only two fights at 154 because he weighed in at 157 for the Mosely fight.

Mora is a middleweight; PERIOD! Love him or hate him, he is a legit contender who would give a lot of guys some serious problems. He is a bit like Malinaggi in the respect that if he had decent power he'd be pretty dangerous.

If he gets past Vera tonight, I'd like to see him fight David Lopez, and the Lee/McEwan winner. However, he probably wouldn't get past Lopez.

 

after the mosley fight was enough for me to say i dont ever want to watch him box again!

 

Sergio Mora is one of the most underrated guys out there. Don't forget he beat Vernan Forrest.

 

he has a boring as **** style, hold, grab, lean, tie up
he has no power, feather fisted
he looked horrible agaist and old shot ssm
got lucky to beat out manfredo in contender
he is a snooze-fest and nobody will pay to see him fight again

 

:good

I'll never ever pay for a Mora..never have never will.

 

It's not just his management though. He pulled out of an undeserved title fight against Jermain Taylor way back when because he didn't want the fight to be in Memphis. Then he had a signed fight with Kelly Pavlik later on that Pavlik pulled out of. And there was a contract dispute with former promoter Jeff Wald that kept him on the sidelines for a while. Plus he's just god awful to watch. So a lot of is is either his fault or someone else's fault.

 

Mora has minimal natural talent and decent skill. He has a boring counter punching style as he has no power.

But

he is multimillionaire.

So how and the **** is this guy poorly managed? If anything he has carved out a nice career for himself. Because there are plenty of guys who are and were far more talented that never saw the big fights or made the big money like this guy did.
