    Im one of the few that take shots at every fighter. I defend them and talk trash as well and yes sometimes I could be bias:D, but more unbias when I write. Damn I love being a boxing fan...

    Not fishing. I'm just speaking the truth. In my eyes Manny has never lost a fair fight. Everyone tries to get an advantage over Manny during negotiations but he always wins.

    I like Morales, and I predicted him to win their first fight, which he did. However, nobody forced Morales to do anything. If Eric didn't want to fight at 130, he could have simply not fought Pac again unless it was at 135. In the end, Morales agreed to fight at 130, and as a professional it's his job to get ready, and come in 100%. The rest is nothing but excuses.

    Why can't u be this logical when discussing the Oscar-PAC fight?

    It's the exact same thing, and for damn sure nobody forces Oscar to do anything.

    Morales was a shell in the 3rd fight and i remember thinking he looked drained. His skin was ashen grey and there was no fire. It was 10% of EM in that ring. The fact he only gained 10lbs compared to Pac's 14lbs is irrelevant. In some cases, if you are extremely dehydrated it is bad for the body to suddenly be crammed with heaps of liquids and food all at once. I believe Morales but why not move to 135 and get Pac a year or two later?

    Had Pac not been headbutted in the first fight, Eric would had been KO'd just like that of the 2nd fight.

    it's hard to tell how different it would have been. I don't think it would have ended in a KO. More than likely, Pac would have closed the gap and if he won, it would have been by decision. But i don't think he was going to beat Morales by KO in their first fight. Morales was fighting too smart.
