Re: Is Morales an a****e?

Whats an asshoe?:huh

[Andrey]

No.

He just simply hates Barrare for a lot of reasons. Don't forget that Barrera sucked punched Morales once

but he also always had to starve himself to make weight.

Being hungry and spending months in mountains training for a fight can defiantly make a person grouchy.
I think Erik is a nice guy.

[Thread Stealer]

He seems decent but if you piss him off or get on his bad side he hates you well after the fight is done.

Barrera and Velardez can attest to that.

[jecxbox]

Erik Morales is pure awesomeness

[Betty Swollocks]

Morales seemed like one of the more likeable boxers in the interviews I saw, no bullshit about him at all....much more likeable than the arrogant Barrera

[Morrissey]

If he is an ass outside the ring, then MAB is a massive hypocrite in and outside the ring.

[Thread Stealer]

(3) morales punched barerra, quit trying to change the facts around.


Barrera punched Morales at the press conference, not the other way around.

[Boom_Boom]

(1) are
(2) I saw barerra's father walk over to congragulate him on a good fight and he threw water at him for no reason. that's as classless as it gets.
(3) morales punched barerra, quit trying to change the facts around.
(4) what makes barrerra an asshole, but not morales. care to ellaborate?

:patsch :patsch :patsch

why do people talk out of their asses and act as though its fact

[mad_takamura]

it was mab who first threw the punch in the press conference dude..:patsch :patsch :patsch
and why did mab do that? because he thought he should have won the first of the trilogy..
so he whined like a baby so he talked it with his fist..
now tell me : who is more gentlemanish: mab or em?

[mad_takamura]

and hey, black i answered your post in pac arrives in l.a. thread:so what do you think?

You probably missed the story, but after their classic first fight, Morales showed nothing but respect for MAB.....Morales even sent Barrera a medal in appreciation of their great fight together.

In turn, in the days, weeks, and months following their first fight, MAB spent his energies through the press, degrading Morales and HBO for the decision going against him.
I dont remember the particulars, but MAB had some harsh words to say about the class of fighter he was in comparison to Morales.

In essense, MAB did'nt show Erik Morales any respect for the efforts both gave in fight one, and this is what really started the hate inside of Morales that led to a feud.
Morales gave MAB all the respect in the world, and in turn, all MAB could do is find words to ridicule and degrade Erik Morales.

Too boot, MAB sucker punches Morales during a promotional tour before their second fight, and the rest is history.

There is no question here that MAB started and fueled the hatred that is inside of Erik Morales to this day.

[LeonardLeroy]

Morales is a far more cleaner fighter, and that says a lot as well.

[rendog67]

No.

He just simply hates Barrare for a lot of reasons. Don't forget that Barrera sucked punched Morales once

Andrey

i would agree with this guy

[KhanB]

I'll admit im a Barrera fan but i do think Morales is an a##hole not to say Barrera cant be also but he at least knows how to hide it better. I remember the Holy/ Toney fight was too close to the date of some Morales fight and Morales said something like Mexicans fight with more excitement. He loses his temper and says stupid shit like sometimes. He was nicer before the trilogy with Barrera but he let his rival get into his head. Barrera's personality hasnt seemed to change at all unlike Morales who can appear to be a sulking ass sometimes.

[KhanB]

Because they balance each other out MexJew. Its like some comic book daredevil v punisher shit. They bring out the best and worst of each other due to their differences similar to Ali v Frazier. Barrera provokes Morales just like Ali would provoke Frazier. In a way they need each other.

[o_money]

Erik Morales is pure awesomeness

fuck ya erik is bad ass.

my fav.

"Erik why do you hate him" (refering to berarra)

"Because he's a faggot. And i hate faggots!"

I'm sorry but thats bad ass.

[Betty Swollocks]

Bitch ass Barrera shows his true colours in adversity. Remember the snide, blatant headbutts on Pacman when he was getting destroyed? Then there was the sucker punch on Morales. He's a motherfucker with his head stuck oh DLH's ass, just as Morales says.

[Betty Swollocks]

this coming from a guy with a cheating scumbag in his avatar:lol:

how come?

also, Barrera never gives credit to anyone who beats him....excuses, excuses, excuses.

[Betty Swollocks]

neither does morales. raheem and barerra's father tried to congragulate him and he turned his back to raheem and threw water in barerra's face.

he gave Pacman a lot of credit after the last 2 fights, saying he was faster and stronger and his punches hurt and bothered him. The reasons the the Barrera hatred are well documented.

[boxbox]

morales was only like that to MAB i think... their hatred to each other was funny, but as a gentleman...its gotta be Erik..in and out the ring.

[Marnoff]

Has a mean streak, no doubt.

[boxbox]

you guys are some true nuthuggers. either that or blind and can't see how classless morales really is. either way it's sickening to see so many people defending this piece of crap.

actually, both did some classless things... so no use defending them really:hey
anyway, if you want class..look somewhere else, im sure you'll find lots with polished nails:hi:

[JV28]

Here are the facts, Barrera apologists:

1) Watch the first fight, it's on this site you may have never heard of based on what you guys are saying, it's called Youtube, it's a place where they show videos. Now, search for Barrera-Morales 1, and footage shows that Morales congratulates Barrera on their great fight and gives him respect, while Barrera clearly shows through his face that he is not satisfied with the decision. Now at that point, it was clearly understandable why he would be upset, as he thought he won the fight, but when the interview came, he started mouthing off like a sore loser and even blamed HBO for giving it to the "HBO Fighter."

2) Now, search for Barrera-Morales press conference or anything like that, and you'll come across videos of a tense confrontation between Barrera and Morales. You call us blind Morales nuthuggers when anyone in their right mind can CLEARLY see that Barrera threw the sucker punch, and Erik, being the proud man that he is, threw back in his defense. Not to mention all the bad mouthing and disrespect that Barrera said preceding that very confrontation.

[Marnoff]

he gave Pacman a lot of credit after the last 2 fights, saying he was faster and stronger and his punches hurt and bothered him. The reasons the the Barrera hatred are well documented.

Morales is backing Pacquaio in a big way largely because Pacquaio has knocked Barerra out, and because they're going to fight again and he'll be ringside to see it happen again.

I look more at Morales' hatred for Barerra as the stimulus for his respect and friendship with Pacquaio.

in the interview right after the second fight Morales seemed totally genuine and honest as usual and was very gracious. He admitted Pac was too much for him at this point and for the first time in his career the opponents punches were really bothering him. I doubt he was thinking of it the way you suggest, he's not consumed by his hate for MAB...but ask him about it and he will give a straight answer...'he's simply a mothefucker' :lol:

[chimba]

Everyone knows that Barrera is a classless prick

but you have to go above that and take the high road

besides PAcquiao is going to beat him halfway to a coma so stop hatin on him? this is enough punishment

Part of his motivation for praising Pacquaio is a shot at Barerra. I have little doubt in this.

[KhanB]

Morales praises Pacman because he truly feels that pac is a better fighter than Barrera, I don't think he's doing that to take a shot at Barrera.

BArrera is a notch below Morales and Pacman in terms of greatness.

Barrera has wins over Kennedy Mckinney, Naz, and Morales and took on Marquez who Pac and definitely Morales try to avoid. How can you say the other two are Clearly better in an ATG status?

[chimba]

How can you accuse Morales of avoiding Marquez and not blame barrera for the same deed? Both morales and barrera avoided Marquez during their prime because marquez was simply not a big enough name and they had bigger fishes to fry at the time. Yes barrera fought marquez this year but that was because he had no other options. What is the point of fighting someone when your best days are already behind you and the important thing is that he lost.. He lost to marquez.

He got his ass raped by Junior Jones 2x and Morales had to clean up his mess. Then he gets bullied by Pacman and again, Morales to the rescue and beats pacman for him to save mexico's face.

Barrera is disgraceful.

Agreed:good The JJ bit was almost swept under the Rug MAB couldnt handle this guy

[KhanB]

Better late than never. Somebody had to challenge Marquez one day and Morales wouldnt do it. Its not like Barrera waited for Marquez to look shot. Losing to Junior Jones sounds better than losing to Raheem. I admit im a Barrera fan but theres no shame in losing to Pac. Im in a way glad he took care of everybody else after to prove beating Barrera was no fluke.

[KhanB]

If Morales was clearly past his prime do you give Pac full credit for destroying Morales?

And yes that is exacly what you do to a past prime fighter...demolish them just like PAC did..What more can PAC do and BTW Past Prime Morales is still better than 9 out of 10 fighters out there

yeah he is an ass, so what? he still will always be my favourite fighter

lol.. thats also what im thinking...:lol:

(1) are

(4) what makes barrerra an asshole, but not morales. care to ellaborate?

it was barrera who threw the first punch at the press conference


also if morales was such an arrogant asshole, he wouldnt have made friends with a guy who KOed him twice.

almost all the examples of morales being an asshole relate to barrera, he just has zero respect for him. he is fine with everyone else.

[elTerrible]

Losing to Junior Jones sounds better than losing to Raheem. I admit im a Barrera fan but theres no shame in losing to Pac.

Marquez's management turned down his biggest ever payday with a potential morales fight. He cant force him into the ring.

[skunk]

morales is one of them people that if he hates you he'll say it to ure face!
