Unfinished business @ the time. Both fought at the same night and was supposed to be a tune up. Raheem just happen to be a stylistic match up for morales and end up winning the fight.
Raheem was a 135 pounder while Pacquiao has just started making a name at 130 at that time, infact Pac remained at 130 till 2008. And common sense tell us that a choice between a named future hall famer Morales and Raheem . . . logical choice would be Morales. Money wise it's still Morales.
come on now..Morales wasn't even visibly hurt. He got stunned in the 5th. after that raheem went on his bicycle. had raheem fought, he may have gotten a match with pacquiao. raheem fought a smart fight. he was too good for his own good if that makes sense. raheem should have knocked morales out. but only pacquiao could do that.:yep
if you look at the politicking...raheem got f'n screwed. he clearly beats Mosley and his own promoter dumps him.:-( woudl have loved to see Pac wear Raheem's crown after he knocks him out.:yep
