    I say the MAB one gave him a chance in that one with the MP/Morales one imo was a pick em fight

    The more Pac achieves, the better that win for EM will look.

    You are crazy. Morales was a big underdog going into their fight. Morales had just lost to MAB and Pac's biggest win was when he beat MAB. No one gave Morales a chance as he was in a lot of wars and was showing it. And according to Roy Jones JR., he humiliated pac in front of his people that night.:yep

    MAB Hamed for me.

    Mostly because of the nature of the win.

    Morales won a close 7-3 in rounds kinda fight which is exaclty how I had scored it, having cut Pac, but also ominously for their subsequent fights - ROCKED Morlaes in the last round.

    MAB dressed down Hamed and made him look like a bloke in the pub who said he could box.

    Is was one of the most entertaining one sided beat downs I've ever seen.

    co sign psychopath.

    in the success arc, hamed was already at the peak of his achievements and seemed invincible.

    pac was still learning the ropes so to speak when they first met.

    what has something from RJJ that you included him in your post?

    the thing is, Pac's lost was redeemed 2x and more impressive than Morales win. Barrera totally sent Naz into retirement.

    The Roy Jones quote was in regards to this thread. After losing bad to an average fighter in Raheem, I wouldn't hold Morales' losses afterwards against him too much.:D

    It wasn't that big of an upset. It was a minor upset, the betting odds were pretty close.
