It works the other way. A 120A battery with a 60A motor is fine. Don't want to max out the battery, want to have extra capability. Same for the ESC, want a little extra to be safe.

Ideally:
Battery amps > ESC amps > motor amps

Although the motor maximum amp value isn't always readily available for RC motors.
