  1. I just got an Erik Morales career set.

    Apart from Barrera trilogy and Pacman trilogy, what are his most exciting fights?

    Those are the best ones but pretty much the whole career is exciting. Aside from the raheem fight I don't think I can mention a single boring fight of his.

    Those were all good fights in their own way, in fact the only bad fight Ive ever seen Morales in was vs Zahir Raheem.

    Paulie Ayala was also a pretty good fight....

    Other fights that were shorter but worth checking out for one reason or another are....
    Junior Jones
    Angel Chacon
    Kevin Kelley
    Jose Luis Bueno
    Carlos Ramirez
    Espadas 1 & 2

    In fact, just stay away from the Morales-Raheem sparring match & you wont be disappointed.

    WTF does that nonsense have to do with anything ?

    He fought at 122 & became the best at 122
    He fought at 126 & became the best at 126
    He fought at 130 & became the best at 130

    End of.

    It was a good boxing match with enough exchanges to keep it very watchable but its not on the same planet as the EM v MAB/Pac fights.

    I think the Zaragoza fight prepared the young Morales well vs an old pro that new a lot of ****... Zaragoza also praised Morales technique as a boxer & said it was that rather than strength or youth that suprised him.

    The passing of the torch indeed.

    :good
