haha one round in and you've abandoned him already...

Well crap he had no answer in the first round. The second he started showing he can still fight.

---

haha so now you're back in his corner? Fucking hell, you're worse than Italy in a world war.

---

Let me say this... I want Morales to win....

---

I'm with you on that one.

Youngblood you're lama is briliant ;D

This has been stunning from Morales, what a performance! I like both guys, but I am willing him on.

This round is the best I've seen Morales look in his whole comeback.

Man, that was awesome.

Um....Morales is holding own big time on this one trick pony....we need major perspective though on Maidana, Not exectly multi geaed

Damn I might have to get on the bandwagon with Johnny!

Maidana is starting to have the Jean Pascal look of 'wtf is happening to me' about him

Morales isn't the same, but all things considered this is a fantastic performance.

The only thing he knows how to do is come forward like a whirlwind. No defense, no straight punches, little movement. The definition of one-dimensional. I don't think Morales will beat him though.

great rd for Morales. Maidana should lose a pt soon if he keeps up with the rabbit punches and other dirty shit.

Yeah, that last round was great to watch, Shot and irrelevant as he may be, I can't cheer against one of my all-time favorite fighters.

I'd like tosee Morales steal a page from Khan's book and test that body.

Morales is doing a really good job of picking hs sports here.

Maidana is sloppy as hell and looks a bit gassed, but so does Morales now. Can he keep it up?

Well, Morales has definitely proven me wrong. I thought he looked awful at first, but he's come alive in the last couple of rounds.

they need a bigger box for Rickys mug !!! dude

Maidana might get a DQ he keeps going after the bell...

I don't think he can, but this is one great last hurrah.

I doubt it. Maidana is one of those fighers like Hopkins who just seems impervious to discipline...

Now that hurt Maidana. NIce left hook

I said the same thing earlier, but this wouldn't even be competitive if there was a near-prime Morales in there. Maidana would be in the hospital by now.

haven't been scoring, but this fight must be a lot closer now.

I give Morales 3 rounds. not sure about the 7th.

That left hook has been Morales best punch all fight. This is amazing.

Gonna stop posting and just enjoy this now.

I thought this was going to be a bigger mismatch than the Haye Harrison fight.



Morales is awesome.

Ditto.

Great showing for old Morales....but he aint reborn, its waring styles and war is what Morales can dig and do i.e soak up some shots too. thinks he's winning and its his to lose now

Morales looks in trouble, deep trouble...then, finds some juice...

Morales let Maidana punch himself out in the first half of that round.

He's been that way his whole career. He gets hit, gets hurt, and then beats the shit out of the other guy.

win, lose, or draw, Morales is putting his foot in my mouth and putting on display every reason why he's my all time favorite fighter, the guy wears his heart on his sleeve and fights like there is no tomorrow, refuses to take punishment and not give it back double time, if he manages to pull off the upset i'd love for him to retire off of this fight alone or if he's going to fight for a title i'd hope it'd be against Judah of all people, QUE VIVA EL TERRIBLE!

Nothing from Maidana in 10, Morales is going to pull this off!

Great round for Morales, even with Maidana's late rally, fuck I wish I had started watching this earlier

Morales is a true great.

I agree whole-heartedly, except about the Judah fight. Morales is having success against Maidana because he's so crude and wide-open, I think Judah's speed and movement would be a nightmare for him.

His corner's right, he'll get robbed unless he stops Maidana.

Morales took a beating that round, might end up costing him the fight :(.

He can stop Maidana though, I never thought I'd say that.

I dont even know how the scorecards are gonna look, but hell of a performance from Morales. One eyed since round 1.

oh i agree, but if he's gonna beat anyone for a title it would be Judah he has no chance against Bradley nor Khan, so given that he's the only one he can take the chance on

Gotta love the feeling of anticipation when you hear both corners tell their fighters they need the KO.

I hope he goes for the ko on Maidana, he's earned whatever big fight they will throw at him next :-X and style-weight wise he may get stomped but tonight is tonight and hes scraping like a fooking Champeeeen
