    the current crop of 122 lbers. like:

    Israel Vasquez
    Rafael Marquez
    Celestino Caballero
    Daniel Ponce De Leon
    Rey Bautista
    Jhonny Gonzales (I know he's fighting at 118, but he can easily move up)
    Steve Molitor

    How would Erik fare against each guy? Discuss.

    To tell you the truth I only see Gomez and Jofre that could maybe beat a prime Morales at 122. He was an absolute beast there.

    Bazooka was the most dominate 122lbs in the history of the division the greatest 122lbs hands down. 4lbs and a couple kilos of cocaine north and he was half the fighter he used to be :-(

    He would beat them all and really make Ponce look bad with all those wide punches he throws.

    Same here.

    But at 122, Erik beats em all.

    Jhonny would give him some major problems but his suspect chin would cost him the fight.

    Erik beats them all, i agree at 122 he was a monster with a freak chin, awesome workrate, good power, good handspeed...heart of a lion..etc

    Beats every single one of them. Top fighters there but Morales was a notch above.

    He'll put a jab on them, let off hard right hands and keep ripping off combos. He'll do this none stop and if they get through his boxing, which they will cos he is too ballsy then he'll keep ****ing them up.
