    Well i have just had a v-bookie bet on Maidana in under 9.5 rounds. But i would'nt mind if Erik proved me wrong.

    I hope so. He's been looking Euro class lately and Maidana is looking world class. If he's stepped it up for this fight and we see the Maidana who fought Corley it's very possible.

    remember that morales usually performs to the standards of his opponents though and steps up whent he competition gets tougher so maybe he still has that gear....im hopin...got 10 quid on it lol

    a huuuuuuuuuge underdog in this fight, but he is a GREAT for a reason, and i wouldn't mind betting all my v-money on maidana, because if eric wins, then it will all be worth it :good

    I think if he can avoid taking too many of those right hands, and he is in condition to fight for 12 hard rounds...maybe.

    If he pulls it off, it would be an incredible win. Also, imagine if he beat Maidana in a more impressive fashion than Khan did? That would be something else.

    I give morales a slim chance, maidana is slow and crude and even an
    old guy should be able to give him trouble if they have a little speed
    (chop chop). think morales might be too over the hill though to have
    legs for 12 rounds
