Morales shows his true Mexican spirit

 

 

Marcos Maidana earned a hard-fought majority decision over Erik Morales in their junior welterweight meeting in Las Vegas on Saturday, 9th April.

The Argentine Maidana started the bout on top, but the longer the fight went on, the more Morales grew in confidence and showed his true Mexican spirit.

Morales had to fight most of the fight with one eye – he was caught by a big uppercut in the first minute of the bout, which didn’t stop his determination to win the fight and prove doubters wrong.

But the Mexican veteran’s courage and heart was not enough to convince the judges that he was the worthy winner. The scorecards read 116-112, 116-112, 114-114, a majority decision in favour of Marcos Maidana, although a partisan crowd at the MGM Grand Garden Arena did not share that view.
