    big NO!

    pacquiao's power wasnt that important to his opponents yet. morales is more comfortable with winning gloves coz it has more pads. he just wants it to be even for both of them. he chose winning coz he prefers it and not bcoz of pacquiao.

    Nothing will ever change that fact that PACQUIAO got schooled by an Aging Morales...Nothing not even the next 2 fights... That will always be there haunting your minds...

    Not Morales 2 and 3, which were pointless. Pacquiao just wanted to ducked fighters in the division.

    Riiiight.
    Those fights were a total waste.
    Nobody wanted those fights and those fights never catapulted Pac to who he is today.

    Moving up in weight is a massive challenge (usually) for a boxer...if you compare that to the affect a certain type of glove has on the outcome of a bout, the latter is not significant at all.

    Also, it was Pacquiao's decision to move up in weight...and usually when a boxer moves up in weight, they don't tend to get the advantage when it comes to picking ring size, gloves, etc. Morales was the bigger star back then, if he wanted to...he probably could have dictated everything leading up to that bout (he maybe did, I don't know the ins and outs).

    But like I've said before...it's an excuse, all boxers have excuses when they lose. If Morales was contractually obliged to wear Reyes gloves for that bout, and lost (I doubt he would have complained afterwards), and people brought it up saying, "Morales was the bigger star, Pacquiao was moving up in weight...he shouldn't have been allowed to dictate terms, and not allow Morales to wear his preferred gloves"...people would have seen that as an excuse, and a way of taking the shine off of an impressive win.

    Not that the rest of your post is a shining beacon of logical and rational thought, but this is quite possibly the most ignorant thing I have ever read on a message board.

    Notice how all the *******s just ignored that post though, go figure.

    115-113 with Morales completely giving up the 12th just to show how big his nuts were.

    Well, you have to wonder if Morales had Clitoris gloves, would he have floored Pac? Pac took massive shots from Morales, too.
