:rofl Are you kidding me! Erik would have won the 2nd fight! He struggled to make weight, which made him weaker and tire alot quicker! That and the pac landing some shots. But had Erik been able to fight at 135 he would have been able to take more and dish out more! After he retired he wrote a long letter explaining everything that had happened. It was in spanish though, and I'm at work no time to translate. But it pretty much says he lost the fights because of trying to make weight.
I agree entirely. However, I don't think the final result would have changed. It just would have been a more sustained beating. Morales was done after the third Barrera bout. Every great fighter has one great fight left in him. For Erik that was Manny.
Yes he was, after the 5th Morales pretty much dominated every round thereafter Pacquiao stole a round somewhere in there and the 12th was given away by Morales deliberately. If you thought Morales was winning after the first 5 rounds of the fight then you must of only gave Pacman 3 rounds at most which is more insane than having Pacquiao winning the fight.
how the **** are people saying he would have been finished quicker? GTFO...morales was drained as ****.
