MORALES-GARCIA CALLED OFF
Next month's world-title fight between Erik Morales and Danny Garcia has been called off.
The pair had been due to meet in Houston on January 28 for Morales' WBC light-welterweight title.
However, Morales has pulled out as he requires more time to recover from recent gall-bladder surgery.
Golden Boy Promotions' Eric Gomez told ESPN.com: "He's not going to fight. He called me and told me the doctor said he feels he needs a little more time to heal internally.
"He said the doctor said everything looks fine on the outside but he needed more time. Could he fight? Erik said he could fight, but the doctor said he doesn't want him to fight."
It is expected the fight will be rearranged for late February or early March. - htp://www.sportinglife.com
