I thought that Morales won that fight, I don't think I have that scorecard anymore. But I remember being suprised that Erik didn't protest the decision at all, David Diaz was never anything more than a fringe contender with good management. I like the guy he has great heart, but definately shouldn't have been holding a strap in such a strong division.

yup yup I remember beign mad at the decision clearly by my eyes Erik won.

morales. the only thing that didn't make it a total robbery was him fading in the last couple of rounds, which made a case for a diaz victory.

Morales won. If the fight would of took place anywhere but Chicago he would of got the win.

Hell yeah Erik won no doubt. They both fight for Top Rank hence it was Arum's decision. It's the end of the road for Erik after a trilogy against Pac and they knew Diaz can be marketed at least once. Look who Diaz fought next.Fukk BOB.

iono i watached that fight i actually had it a either a draw or diaz by one,

ur right i think it was the constant pressue that killed morales, REMATCH

fun fight to watch!!!

When does Morales make his comeback fight?I always love watching him.Great great fighter.Great chin!!

definately one of the roberies i had been most disapointed and angry at!

The thing is morales won, he looked gone gainst pac yeah,..

and when your an aging fighter time is something very precious, he turned back the clock, deserved the decision.. love the first round when he was bieng chased down i was worrying my ass off thinking he was shot.. and morales puts him down. loved it!

but by all rights he should be the first and only mexican four weight world champion cementing his legacy permanently and riding off into the sunset..
but this right has been robbed of him and now he talks of his hunger to return in '09 and further risk a legacy that by right should be solid and he should be content if the right decision had been rewarded.

Bad decisiions really make me sick.

Hopefully never

Yeah I was bummed he didn't get the decision in that one. Just look at Diaz eye, he was fucked up. Morales just didn't have the stamina to keep up the pace late and win convincingly.
