Morales/Barerra

[GAME]

Morles is 100% washed up... he can still fight and beat second rate fighters like david diaz whom he was screwed against...

But to me this is why erik will never been a true great, he became shot to early... true ATG don;t do that...

But marco is sumin different... ok no secret, my all time fav fighters...

but what stops him being champion now, is not age, but hunger...

his timing isnt what it was, but i thought he beat JMM and his fight with pac was close, both of which he had no real hunger, u seen it in both juarez fights, he was content to just "do enough" something the great barrera never did, he always fought with a purpose...

while the pros and conns debated weather marcos was saving him self or no longer cared, it turned out he just no longer had the hunger...

but if he could, for one more fight get the must win back, there is maybe only pac who could beat him, and i would give him a very good chance over pac

Thats exactly how I see it Preme. The commentary we go got scored Barrera as the winner in the pac fight and alot of people thought he beat Marquez so really if he just had better judges then Barrera would be p4p number 1 now . Neither of those guys could drop him or really control him so he isnt as washed up as some people think . I agree its entirely a hunger issue . As you say he never use to do just enough to win but being with Golden boy seemed to give him a business like mind like Oscar . Now he has left that promotional outfit and he is well rested we may see that hunger again cuz its totally how he approaches a fight mentally . I absolutley welcome a comeback from him. He wanted to outbox Marquez , he did it . He wanted simply to cruise through 12 with Pac and he did it . I think if he really wants to fight with passion again then he may be able to do that too cuz its not as if he will be fighting a superstar 1st time out . He says he will make his decision before September anyway but Id love to see him comeback and Id go to the fight too . My favourite fighter ever!

Morales is a different story . He didnt lose the passion . He lost the physical ability and no longer has it in the legs . He has lost 5 of his last 6 fights and I wouldnt like to see him comeback, not even at the David Diaz level .
