For Morales to get a 4th fight with Barrera I think there would have to be a title on the line. Then it would be the 1st time in history that 2 guys met moving up in weight each time for a world title. My money would be on Barrera

However Erik is younger than Marquez and Barrera and they are still fighting regularly . Erik has been well rested too so Id welcome a comeback. Only problem is making the lightweight limit . That division has a history of high profile fighters failing to make weight.

no disrepect but these mexicans all seem so old because they fight so much and start so young, thats why i always think eric is like in his 40's

i heard hes coming back cause hes bored watching over his business.....lol

Although I love Morales, I think he's a totally washed-up fighter. He's just taken too much punishment in the ring, which, of course, is unfortunate.
That being said, I think a full medical evaluation including an M.R.I. of the brain should be performed prior to giving him any chance to step back in the ring.

Morales is done for, I know he's not coming back for a 4th rematch with Pac

Sad, really.

What has me thinking more is that his wife is not keen on him fighting again, she's really worried for him.
I hope this is just a rumor and he doesn't go on with it.

Me too. He is a true ATG and I've seen him take enough beatings now to know he's done. In his prime I'd have gone for him to take Pac (now) and JMM.

Is it only me that feels Erik will be a champion again? No matter how biased I might sound I'm tellin the world he beats Marquez fair and square.

Dud i love Morales in a none gay way but fightin JMM on his comeback is a bad idea.

This guy has been in many wars and taken many blows all in the name of entertaining the fans and that he did but I personally don't want to see him get hurt. Marquez is really too much for many people let alone Morales. He's had his day but if he gets hurt, they'll be many nights he wishes he just retired. Let us remember a great fighter and not one that made the same mistake of coming back without all his tools.
