Morales vs. Garcia Title Fight Cancelled

Morales Cancelled His Bout Against Garcia

The WBC Supelightweight Champion Erik “Terrible” Morales won’t fight with Dany Garcia next January 28 in the Reliant Arena in Houston due to medical care after the surgery he had last Wednesday.

This bout can be re scheduled; it might be moved to February 18 or early in March.

“It is decided, the fight won’t take place, the doctors said I have to get more rest after the surgery, and for a great bout like the one I was going to fight against Danny Garcia it is better not to rush things and train with calm” said the World Champion.

The fight between Morales and Garcia, was going to be the main card of the boxing show where James Kirkland will fight Carlos Molina in a ten round bout in Superwelterweight, this card is promoted by Golden Boy Promotions and it will be broadcasted by HBO Boxing After Dark.

Despite it was a successful surgery where the doctors removed 160 gallbladder stones and also said that after 10 days he could return to his trainings, they then decided that the best choice would be not to fight that date.

“I asked not to cancel the fight, just to re scheduled it and now they’re trying to do it, I hope that can be fixed this week” Morales said.
