    A decade ago it would have been a good fight. Morales would give as good as he got and had the edge over Marquez IMO. Juan would try to slow it down but Erik could raise the tempo and win exchanges. Now though he would be too slow and weight drained. Marquez will do exactly what he wants when he wants and finish it in the middle rounds.
    Far from owned mate I thought that fight was a robbery.

    To have a close fight with David Diaz is as good as ownage. The point I was making is that Morales was far from his peak even back then so I cant see how he is going to have any chance in this fight at all.

    a fresher Soto had a "close" fight with Diaz, Morales won that fight against Diaz by AT LEAST 3 rounds plus the extra point for the 1st round knockdown, it wasn't close by any means, highway robbery
