Oh no. Im not saying Morales was beaten. Im saying it's a trend that when an underdog doesnt get beaten very convincigly then people will jump on to say he won... No one ever beat Morales without getting his ass beaten in return. NO one ever did that to Morales. Im sure Maidana got his share too. Andrey
He looked great even with one eye closed from the get go. Schooled Maidana at times. Landed some beautiful combos and power shots too. Morales is one of the greatest.
Personally i had it a draw, but Morales won the event without question. Morales is the mother****in' man!
Had Morales 115-113, his lack of conditioning really showed in those last two rounds(which Maidana clearly took), but even if Erik had one them he'd have only got a draw on the judges cards.........then it would have been a robbery. As it is Morales has just been pretty unlucky.
I was routing for Morales, but it could have gone either way. I think a Maidana win is a fair decision. I would have been most satisfied with a draw, since neither fighter deserved to go away with a loss
