Brennan is the unsung hero
If Brennan hadn't fixed the Morales fight, chances are Lights would've suffered the brain damage in that fight, and never would have made it to the big money match with Reynolds.

share1)Fixing a fight by threatening to get a guy's parole revoked (when really, it ought to be) doesn't make you a hero.
2)I tend to agree with Lights' dad--Morales may have said he'd throw the fight, but his pride took over, and he was fighting to win. Lights knocked him out. They just threw that in there to create some doubt about the not very doubtful outcome of the Reynolds fight.
1. Maybe not but he did help Lights get to the big pay day.
2. From the replay Lights watched in his hotel, it looked like Morales wasn't knocked out from his facial expression. He just took the punch and took a NBA-esque flop to the canvas. Either way I thought it was a nice storyline to add into the finale.

Good stuff, clyons.
To support your point, if a pro is so far gone he's taking bombs with his hands at his sides he's on the edge of total disaster, and nine times out of ten the ref jumps in and stops it at that point. For anybody claiming Morales was diving, the fighter has never lived who would deliberately take a head pounding with his hands down. Like your example of Ali-Liston II, a fighter on the take goes down from a glancing shot that wouldn't ruffle your kitchen curtains.
In other words, Morales was a legit KO.
