    For entertainment I prefer the Gatti v Ward fights (only just) but I agree this is the greatest trio of fights considering the quality of fighters and entertainment they delivered.

    He lands a right straight and then massive left hook that almost knocks Morales down.

    can we talk about the 12th round KD in the first fight for a minute?

    iv seen it way to many times to count.. im tellin you right now barrera lands a solid shot on morales, drives him into the ropes. morales CLEARLY looking for a breather tries to use his legs, circles out around the ring, barrera also tired walks at him trying to find his range as morales backs up barrera cuts in on morales and misses with a shot, morales tries to go under it but it looks like his legs just give up on him an he takes the knee, nothing really that suggests anything like a slip

    A very anti-climatic knockdown. I don't know why Morales went down for sure.

    Could it have been his body giving out due to accumulation of punishment???

    He still seemed to have enough stamina to keep going so I don't think it was a cardio thing.

    It didn't seem to be massive punch. Maybe he lose balance.

    I scored it a knockdown. Hey knockdown. A punch is a punch and he went to a knee.

    So he won the round on that? He got treated like a bad stepson for that whole round.
