    From his first professional bout in his native Tijuana, Mexico, Erik Morales was destined for glory. It started at the young age of 16. Fourteen years later, a four-time world champion and a true legend in the ring, he now has the opportunity to capture an accolade that eluded even the great Julio Cesar Chavez—to become a champion in four different weight divisions.

    Everyone knows pokemon is not a fighter, but a childrens toy. And also that Morales has not fought him three times.:slap:

    What a shock, Arum already reneging on the assurance that win, lose or draw Morales wil retire after next weekend.

    Nice job as always Sal, though I have a hard time accepting the fact that anyone in the media recognizes this not only as a title fight, but that Morales would be regarded as a 4-division world champion should he win (which I don't think he will, but that's for another discussion).

    I will say this, if Morales and Barrera do fight again, it should be a retirement fight for both, and this time held in Mexico, where the other three belonged.
