    Morales was a ***** all the way through the trilogy. Especially the last fight when he refused to shake Barrera's hand at the end, and he also threw water over Barrera and his father after the decision was announced.

    Just a sore loser.

    Eddie Mustafa Mohammed vs. Rudy Koopmans. Because half of it would take place in my hometown (Leeuwarden, Netherlands).

    It was barrerra who instigated all of that. If morales was a sore loser he would never have became great friends with pacman.

    :think


    I would have to pick a 24/7 with Winky then. Maybe Winky-Trinidad. that would have been good. Or maybe Winky-Vargas before Winky was as famous.

    If they'd tried to shoot 24/7 with the Roberto Duran that I saw train in the late '60s and early '70s, they wouldn'ta got through an episode: He'dda disembowled the crew and ate the camera.

    I think a 24/7 on Greb/Walker would be interesting. During the short clip of them signing for the fight...Walker seems slightly nervous when standing with Greb and DeForrest...Greb looks solemn and intimidating. One very rough, tough customer...

    What? It's a good pick, it would have loads of old school footage of the early 80's when boxing was extremely popular in this city. My trainer and other local gym hero's as young lads, etc.
