Then, I suspect, he'll get be in big trouble. It's too bad, and I'd like to see him finish the fight on his feet, even if he loses.
Very true. Sorry to the fans of EM. November 18 (19 here in the Philippines) is the appointed time for the Erik Morales' retirement from professional boxing. EM will be knockout before 10th round.
