el terrible fails to make the weight
lightweight champion Erik Morales has lost his 140lb title on the scale. Even a few days ago it was known he was struggling to make weight and after weighing in at 142 he immediately drank water and left 30 minutes later.

Jose Luis Castillo was supposed to re-weigh hotel but blew it off. He went to eat. Not joking. Fight vs Cotto might be canceled. Stay tuned.

Re: el terrible fails to make the weight

+1 Morales looks physically terrible in all his recent fights, he still can fight and packs a punch, but he probably did Garcia a favor in this one.hardcorebee24 wrote:Hagler's Bald Head wrote:How the hell can Morales be overweight for a division he doesn't even belong in ?

"I'm not too worried about the belt; the important thing is the fight," Morales said through translator Robert Diaz, one of Golden Boy Promotions' matchmakers. "I already won the fourth belt so it doesn't matter to me."- Eric Morales
What a dick.
What a dick.

He should have lost his license along with his trinket. Lopez get's suspended because of comments. Yet this fool blatantly doesn't make his contracted weight? That shows he is no longer a proffessional, and should not be granted a pro license to box.

Absolutely. He looks pudgy and out of shape. He's getting a million dollars for this. Basically telling us fans and the sport to fuck off, this last tour of his was his pension fund. Castillo should also be banned and never granted a license for his actions. Either that or have a tournament with Morales, Castillo, Joan Guzman and Nate Cambell for the ICMW(I Can't Make Weight) Light Welterweight? Title.

Team Cotto: Castillo Now Weighs Over 151, Fight is Off
Gaby PeñagarÃcano, the legal adviser for Jose Miguel Cotto (32-3-1, 24KOs), has advised BoxingScene.com that his boxer's scheduled bout with Jose Luis Castillo (63-11-1, 54KOs) is now officially off. The fight was going to take place on Saturday at the Reliant Arena, Houston, Texas - as part of the Erik Morales-Danny Garcia undercard.
The drama first began at Friday's afternoon weigh-in, where Castillo weighed 147.75. The fight with Cotto was contracted for a catch-weight of 145-pounds.
PeñagarÃcano was not surprised with Castillo's inability to make weight, especially when considering the Mexican veteran's well documented history of failing to make weight. However, Cotto and his adviser were still hoping that Castillo could sweat off enough weight to make the fight possible.
But, they were shocked Castillo showed up over two hours later and weighed in at 151.75
"Its completely off. We are not going to play those games or [tolerate]the behavior that is damaging to the sport. Its a slap in the face and a disgrace and we're not getting into it. I was not surprised at all that he came in two pounds and three-quarters over the contracted limit, but you take two hours, as always, and you try and come down, as always. was expecting him to come down to 146 or 146 and something - and in that case it was so little that you can make an arrangement. For him to weigh 147 and and three-quarters take his two hours, wait, and then come back and weigh 151 and three-quarters..........its an insult to our intelligence. And then to expect to get paid some money to do the fight, its not happening," PeñagarÃcano told BoxingScene.com

WTF is going on. Marquez-Mayo fight is likely off as well, because Marquez failed to make weight.

Boxing killing itself again. This wouldn't happen on same day weigh ins. Day before weigh ins allows fighter to be less disciplined IMO.

There just needs to be heavy punishment. Lose your licences for a year(since fighters are so damn in-active) and have to pay for the entire cost of the cancelled fight because they couldn't make weight.

If they did that the promoters would lose because the fighters wouldn't/couldn't pay. A better way would be to make them fight for nothing. Completely obliterate their purse. Fucking Morales blows weight on an HBO showcase and is OK with it? Like I said, this was his pension, he's going to phone it in tonight and retire afterwards. If there is a demand he'll fight again for the right money but this past year was his retirement fund.

They wouldn't even show up to fight if they knew they weren't going to get paid. So either way, the fight would be cancelled.
Definitly should lose their license for a year. Six months is too little time since fighters today take six months between fights.

Just beat them mercilessly lol. There is no perfect way to penalize these guys especially for a guy like Morales who could fight in Mexico if he's banned in the states. This is why we haven't seen stiffer penalties I guess.

True, he could go fight in Mexico for a fraction of what he'll be getting paid in the States and on HBO.
And I can careless about that. This clown shouldn't be getting a nickel from HBO or this fight. Fuck Morales.

No. If he had them removed, he should have had weight loss. BUT, he got them in first place you can bet because all the rapid weight losses to make weight. That's the biggest way to get gallstones.
Just a case where his age won't allow him to cut weight rapidly like he use too before weigh in. And he just doesn't give a fuck anymore.
