    The End.

    serious thread, friends; nobody thinks that the legendary Morales deserves an up to 250 word tribute, for his entire career?:think

    When he dethroned the ageless Daniel Zaragoza nearly a decade and 13 pounds ago, there was little reason to believe Erik Morales would still have such an emotional pull on boxing fans today. Many fighters have longevity, some have a slew of titles to show for their efforts, but few seem to represent the warrior mentality and the willingness to take on all comers the way Morales has.

    While there might be a rather sizable gap in their comparative skills, he is in this sense very much like Arturo Gatti. Living proof that one needn't win every fight in order to continue to command big paydays and the respect of the entire boxing community. The meat between the bread is the willingness to risk, the laying it all out there for the world to see. As his career progressed, wins and losses seemed somehow less important than the effort. You knew a herculean effort would always be there. When the smoke clears, that's all we really want anyway.

    We'll have to set up a unification bout sometime soon...
