Morales vs. Raheem (recap)

What the heck was team Morales thinking when they picked former Olympian Zahir Raheem as a tune up fight. Zahir Raheem is one of the slickest boxers in the sport, he's one of the biggest fighters Morales has ever faced, and he can take a punch. All around, it doesn't read like a tune up fight.

The two fights Morales has lost were to Marco Antonio Barrera ... when the smaller, slower, Mexican fighter out-boxed Morales. So, what's the solution by team Morales ... get him in there with a bigger, slicker, faster fighter. Go figure.

I lift my frothy mug to Raheem! He's gotta lotta class, he's a heluva fighter, and I want to see more of him. Come to think of it, I'd like to see him fight Joel Cassamayor next.
