    Im a big Erik Morales fan too. It has been a pleasure to watch the wars he has been involved over the last years, i dont know if anyone in history has ever been through two trilogies like Morales has with MAB and Pacman.

    Obviously, its fair to say Morales is not the fighter he once was, but i dont think hes as shot as alot of people make out. At this stage in his career, speed will kill Morales. It showed clearly in the third Pac fight, he cant handle speed anymore. David Diaz has alot of heart and is a good warrior, but he doesnt have the type of speed to trouble Erik. I can see Morales boxing his way to a clear UD here, but i dont expect him to beat any live champions in the future.

    Morales to be the first Mexican four-weight world champion:good

    Decibel, I voted Diaz UD... but now I am leaning more toward a Morales UD. Diaz is too much of a chump and I just don't think he will outbox Morales nor stop him with his sad offensive arsenal. don't make a bet cause of me though. Keep in mind Diaz rehydrates to 150lb come fight night.

    I'm not going to bet on this...too risky...and I don't want to break my winning streak.

    would be interesting to hear from Morales backers...is he not shot, or shot, but still good enough to beat David Diaz?
