I never bought into the he went southpaw to **** with pac myth. He was going for the KO so he went southpaw to try to lead with the right hand (his power hand). It almost cost him the fight. He damn near went down in that last round. Morales was one of the guys that made me love boxing. I think he gets the respect he deserves.
Pacquiao wasn't wearing 10oz gloves, just the softer 8oz gloves. Morales did not allow Pacquiao to wear the 8oz Reyes gloves that he usually wears. Not saying that was the reason for the loss though. Obviously Morales was the main reason and I think that Pacquiao moving up in weight again and the cut had more effect than the gloves.
trueee he didn't "school" pac.... Buuuut....Morales did go southpaw in the last round... i think he would have taken that round if he didn't go southpaw, but i'm glad he did what he did. he was the epitome of a badass in that fight :deal
Looking for excuses to discredit the win... But End of prime Morales Owned pacquiao.. he gave his last great performace that day. Yeah pac won the next 2 but Morales was already past his prime so who cares...
