Garcia will beat this old man down, no matter how many times he tries. Morales will gas in the 8th and receive his beating.
Garcia better lose his belt if he takes this fight. It's one thing to screw over Olusegun yet again with a unification, but it's even worse if you simply make the same match you put him on the backburner for once already.
The first fight (and hopefully last) was actually a good fight. Morales was actually schooling and outfoxing Garcia. It was more of Erik's body letting him down than Garcia actually beating him. Maybe Erik can upset him in a rematch maybe not, but he really has nothing to prove he gave the fans once again a great account of himself even in the shot state he's in. He almost beat a young, prime, good fighter. Morales probably gave him the toughest fight of his life and had to make Garcia work hard for it, no way in hell was Morales even shot to **** going to be a cakewalk for Garcia. It would be epic if Morales did end up winning the younger Garcia and he was on the brink of doing it, but at the sametime it wouldnt surprise me. In reality, win or lose, in any fight El Terrible is in it becomes epic.
While I did want to see Morales hang them up, this fight makes sense. At least he's not trying to move up to a bigger, more dangerous fight. This can determine if he can perform any better than last time, and whether he should just quit.
This can't happen, people. Unless Garcia wants to lose his belt. Garcia has got a mandatory in Ajose Olusegun. The only way they can bypass a mandatory is if it's a unification bout, and Morales has no belt, so this is not possible. Morales is blowing gas. Nothing is done.
i thought it was very close going into the knockdown. kudos for garcia for fighting through the broken nose.
