    Wow...
    Assuming it's true, it's a sour note on which to end an amazing career.

    I hate to say but I think boxing needs either a death to occur at the hand of a juicer or a whole lot more stars get caught red handed until something meaningful is done.

    Damn I guess there was something behind his comment a few months back regarding drugs in Mexico. Is anyone clean anymore? And should these type of positive test effect the legacy of fighters?

    This really does reflect on just how ridiculously rampant this shit is. Think about how Morales looked in his last fight, and imagine if he had actually been clean. Until they have adequate standardized testing you can't rule anybody out, and it's easy to almost feel sorry for the guys who happen to get caught, especially in the case of an old guard like Morales who had nothing left.

    The end should have been his 4th consecutive loss in 2007 against Diaz.

    Never really liked him that much if I'm honest.

    He didn't lose that fight. I'm sorry but that was genuinely one of the worst decisions I've ever seen and I think if he'd got what he deserved in that fight, he wouldn't have comeback.


    I'm genuinely sad about this. I hope there isn't any truth to it but I think if the USADA say then there is little chance of false accusation. Stringent testing should be right throughout the sport. We need an international governing body for fucks sake.

    Morales is my favourite fighter from Barrera and Marquez generation. He was a quality fighter. The condition he came in against Garcia , which was fat demonstrates to me that he use the drugs to take weight off. Either way he needs to stay retired and this is the worst way to go for a legend.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Wasn't he popped for a diuretic or banned substance before?? Its obvious he was shedding weight in a drastic manner. Sad to say, its not shocking and he needs to retire already.
