I'm going to order it, but am going to watch the Showtime card first. Anyone on here going to be doing the round-by-round for the card?

Nick,
I am sure somebody will. It's still Erik Morales and people will be interested enough to order the fight. The round by round doesn't have to be a formal thing per se. Anyone who is watching it, feel free to reply to the thread and tell us about it. I am going to be taping and watching the Showtime card later tonight, so I will not be reading the threads for the big fights and commenting until I have seen them later tonight. Jack |

PREFIGHT
El Terrible Erik Morales enters first to chorus of cheers from the crowd. He looks to be in good shape. The champion, David Diaz, enters next to some slight boos. |

Is Morales looking like the Morales of old? I mean, does he look competitive?
