Zahir Raheem

Extremely talented fighter. Slick, fast, decent power, and solid chin. Would love to see him fight a big name.

 

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

 

Not because of Popó. Raheem was holding and wrestiling all night like he always does. Freitas came to fight but Raheem didn't. The fight was extremely close.
Raheem is good but overrated because he beat a shot Morales. Freitas was not in his best weight and already shot and semi-retired when he fought Raheem.

 

Yes...I think thats the crux of the issue :tired

 

NO!

Wake my ass up when he retires. Zzzzzz :tired:dead

 

Thats cos he woulda got knocked out if he tried. Heck Erik got pissed off with his running around, chased after him and knocked him down. It was Morales first fight at 135, he clearly looked pudgy and undertrained for the fight, underestimated a good slick bigger fighter big time and he paid for it. Specially as his feet couldnt keep up with the guy.

 

morales was shot by that time, but still had some left in him, that fight was not that one sided, morales had a few moments and raheem i don't know if he's doing it on purpose, he slip on the floor for about 5 times.

But yeah raheem is good, pretty slick..i don't think anybody would want to fight him since he is high risk low reward fighter. Morales had golden balls to fight a guy with such calibre in his first move to 135

 

The funny thing about the Morales fight is that I seen it coming a mile away... Erik was moving up in weight against a former olympian, good boxer and naturally bigger than erik... And he wasnt gonna engage in a brawl with him.. The one thing that shocked me though was how easy he made it look... I had em winning the freitas fight I thin by 1 point.. i can't remember..

He's still ranked in Ring's Top 10... He has a title eliminator in Africa next week.... He need to win this fight....
