Erik Morales vs . Mikey Garcia

[Vladimir5555]

I think Morales win by UD 117-111.

Not that much of a sample size for Garcia (just Salido as far as top comp). Morales on points.

[SenorPipino]

Closer fight than you might think, but El Terrible's experience edge at the elite level just too much for Mikey down the stretch.
Morales wins in the neighborhood of 115-112.

Do you see a KD? I don't.

No.
Once Morales moved up to featherweight, KOs became few and far between.
His true power was at bantam and super bantam.

I asked because of the 115-112 score.

[SenorPipino]

Yeah, I kind of took that score off the top of my head.
Doing the arithmetic on paper, I'd make it 116-113 or 7-4-1.
Pretty much a toss-up thru 9 rounds and then Morales steps it up and takes over in the championship rounds.
With more seasoning, Garcia could take a rematch, but like you said, he never had a real championship log at 126, so it's difficult to judge him accurately.
My gut feeling is that he's going to be a star at 130 and 135.

I feel the same. That score makes sense.

[gilgamesh]

Not really fair to Mikey to put him in with guys like this when he's still had not much chance to prove just how good he is yet. As it stands right now I gotta favor El Terrible.

[Giancarlo]

Morales.

[giacomino]

Morales now but too soon to tell
