    A Prime Morales would have beaten Pac worse then in their first fight.

    Wouldn't stop him though. Wide UD.

    Eric beat Manny when he was past prime. The Morales that fought MAB would crust the Manny that fought Marquez 1.

    Lol comparing a prime Morales to a green PAC. Prime PAC with all his arsenal is when he fought Hoya.

    Yikes. Would look something like Marquez/Pac 1 but without the first round knockdowns.

    Pac beats him. In his first fight at 130 Pac didn't have the power to really get EM's respect throughout the fight. At times it looked like Morales was shrugging off Pac's bombs. Different story at 122 or 126, or as we all saw once Pac grew into 130.

    Morales matches up really well with Pac, much better than Barrera imo

    Eric was highly skilled, very good at at judging range & was very accurate. He had a great right hand, an ATG chin & warrior mentality.

    Pac cant outbox him or overwhelm him with power, speed & volume.
