Pacquiao saw this and said, "no way jose!!!" 😂😂😂

[@DRUNKIRISHMAN-THE-TAVERN]

This fight ruined Zahir Raheem career even though he won the fight against a ATG in Erik Morales he was blacklisted from boxing after this fight no one wanted to fight him

[@kabanbay6226]

Mayweather would have declassed Morales

[@geOrge_carlin]

Though a shadow of his former self by this stage, Erik Morales is `still` (since his beginning) my favorite boxer of all time. Warrior, tough, skilled af, relentless, exciting, didn`t give a f**k, etc. He had it all.

“Shadow of his former self” 😂 He just beat a prime Pac before this fight.

[@BrianWarren-hl6pv]

Stop making excuses he had just beat PAC man and he's only 29yrs old, the truth is he has inferior skills when compare to Raheem plan and simple 😂

Господи помилуй! Рахим хорош, очень хорош в этом бою! Не видел этого бойца раньше! Даже у Моралеса, мало что получается, противопоставить! Спасибо!

Where the heck did Zaheer Rahim go after this?

He got blacklisted from boxing basically no one wanted to fight him after this fight

He lost his next fight then was knocked out in his next eliminator a couple years later.

@@DRUNKIRISHMAN-THE-TAVERN he lost to Freitas and got stopped by funeka…. How is that being blacklisted

[@user-eb7zb4xg5q]

Не может Эрик зацепиться комбинацией, Захир всё видит, читает, наказывает за малейшую ошибку! Спасибо!

[@user-eb7zb4xg5q]

Я видел Моралеса в разные времена! Его били молодые, сильные, быстрые бойцы, ближе к пенсии! Но что бы противник был умнее, хитрее "Ужасного", вижу первый раз! Спасибо!

Erik was done at this point he also lost to David Diaz and Raheem went on to get beat up by Freitas and lost to rocky juarez prior to

[@emanuele1334]

Erik won against Diaz though.......it was a horrible decision indeed. Erik was coming from the victory against Manny here......he was tired of boxing and cut the weight at that point.

[@pitercrauch]

with one hand Erik beats that cowardly boxer

[@decidingpaper6324]

It’s called technical boxing, and Raheem outboxed him for 12 rounds

[@pitercrauch]

​@@decidingpaper6324They always justify cowardly boxers. The truth is that Erik came out clean without any blows and they say that he lost when the other boxer spent the fight running. If he didn't want to fight, he better look for another sport.

[@decidingpaper6324]

@@pitercrauch there’s a difference between running and outboxing your opponent. Outboxing is what Raheem did here, and running would be what Shakur did vs de los Santos

[@pitercrauch]

​@@decidingpaper6324This is boxing, not a marathon. If you're afraid, don't get in the ring. You're afraid of hitting and getting hit. That's why Erik is a Hall of Famer and the other one is just any Gayweather.

[@decidingpaper6324]

@@pitercrauch well, boxing’s not a sprint, it’s a marathon, and conditioning is important in the ring. You often see prospects blow away their opponents in one or two rounds only to get rinsed when they step up or fight someone who can take them past that.
