Thread: Eric Morales says Humberto Soto is next

Erik Morales Says Humberto Soto is Possibly Next - Boxing News

Morales by decision..

You eventually reach a point with fighters hanging on to where you go from 'he's a tough old great who might pull a suprise, much respect' to 'Jesus man ENOUGH already' You don't mind them losing in the hopes the finally go away...I'm there with Mosley, Jones and Morales.

Unless Matthysse is in the ring next to the ref still hitting Soto I think he puts a whiping on a tired old shell.

Was'nt morales banned and he decided to retire.

I believe that was just in Nevada, hell might just be in Las Vegas, or whatever city or state it was.

He can still fight in Mexico and probably in many of the 50 United States.

As far as the fight goes, I think it can be competitive and a good fight. I wanna favor Soto a little, but Morales is a little unpredictable and has true grit.

Bad styles match up for Morales

He was supposed to fight one final "retirement/adios" fight in Mexico.
I guess he changed his mind or maybe this is it.

Ah, the classic has-been vs the never-was. I'd take the has-been if he wasn't geriatric. Soto by stoppage.

Humberto Soto is far from a never-was. He was a champion for God sakes. He just never reached superstar or legend status as Erik has.

He was an extremely protected paper champion who lost every time he was really tested. Never-was probably isn't fair, but I just don't think very highly of Soto.

He schooled Rocky Juarez if I remember correctly and beat Humberto Toledo who was pretty good before he began biting people.

Fair enough, to me Panchito Bojado or Augie Sanchez are never-was type fighters. They had promise n talent, but blew it.

Yeah, that's fair too. Never-was it too harsh for Soto. I'll just stick with calling him an overprotected paper champion with no chin .

Seriously? No chin? He's been stopped twice in over 70 fights. One was due to a cut. The other one was to the much bigger Lucas Matthysse, who pretty much has been knocking everybody out.

Yeah, saying he has no chin is probably a bit unfair too, but I seem to remember Soto getting rocked pretty much every time I've seen him fight (which obviously isn't that often )

Soto gets him by ko , Morales is done. He might!!! survive a points loss

Fuck off Eric you ruined your legacy by cheating for the Garcia fight, broke my damn heart to see it happen too.
