Why are Pac fans so quick to forget about the Morales loss?

    It's natural for boxing fans to remember KO/TKO than a UD. Moron!

    First sentence fails already.

    MP never had a reputation of having a granite chin.

    Not at flyweight, not at featherweight, not at lightweight, never.

    In fact, at 112lbs., he had the reputation of having a weak midsection, iffy chin, and prone to lose steam if you take him to the late rounds. But he already had good punching power, activity and gameness.


    That's what made watching him fun. You know his opponent always had the puncher's chance, even if MP was leading the scorecards 11 rounds to zero, with 20 seconds left in round 12.

    One solid punch to the chin or the body has a chance to KO him.

    Its because he beat morales twice after that fight and pacman improved drastically in all aspects.

    Always an excuse lol... PAc beating Morales twice told us that EM was old in the last two fights. I don't think EM won another fight after the Raheem fight.

    "Kicking ass" is Calzaghe-Lacy, MP-MAB I.

    EM-MP I was not a one sided beatdown. Manny lost, but not overwhelmed and embarrased.

    I have a theory about MP's performance that 1st night against EM, but I wont tell it here.

    Not the socks, not the gloves.
