    I've never seen this fight personally but I remember the day after ESPN said it was "shady scoring" .

    It wasn't a blowout by any means, it ended up being close cause Morales faded at the end. It definately appeared Morales was ahead though. I have seen much worse decisions.
    For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.

    It really was close, any claim from Morales' camp of bias was on the strength of his performance in the first 5-6 rounds of the fight. The remainder bottom half rounds saw EM fading, negating any lead he built in the said begining rounds. Diaz finishing strong, in my opinion, earned a narrow win!

    I have a nasty feeling about his comeback.
    Is that a good thing?
    No he should stay retired.

    Well personally id like to see him comeback strong and keep going considering he is only 32 yrs old,although MAB & Pacman fights might have had a toll on him. But on his comeback he wants to face Juan Manuel Marquez so that might be a toughy.

    what he said, there have been much much worse, Morales being such a legendary and popular fighter made the outcry more than it usually would be considering it wasn't that horrible a decision compared to some. He should have got the decision though.

    Morales needs to stay retired. He might be 32. But in Boxing he's more like 42 or older

    Morales needs to stay retired, i'd love to seem him still involved in the sport, but as a trainer or a promoter, which honestly i think he'd be very good at seeing how he's gone on the record more than once saying that fan's deserve great fights, so i'm sure he would try to keep his promoted cards with that standard, but yea he's already given the world countless memorable wars and moments, IMO him and Barrera are both the 2nd best Mexican boxer's ever, i say they're tied, cause you can honestly make a case for each in completely different perspectives.

    I dont think Erik was robbed in this fight . He was very close to be stopped in the last round. He had no legs and I think he just got beaten up by the bigger fresher guy . It makes no difference though cuz anyone with half a brain knows that a prime Erik would have toyed with Diaz so it no harm to his legacy

    If Erik wants to comeback he has to do it soon . Barrera has his next comeback fight lined up in January in Mexico. Its pretty soon after his last comeback . Erik needs to do the same or he will be too ring rusty . Hes probably best off staying retired TBH .
