Only beat him because of a knockdown?Thats the goofiest thing i've ever heard! "Thats like saying he only reason he one was because he punched him in the face more!" Yes it was a close fight and yea knockdowns due tend to give you an advantage duh! Even though Pacquiao is in his prime now, he would easily have taken care of Castillio and Corrales a few years ago with no problems!
First, morrales was not fading, Raheem would have beaten Morrales at any stage of his career. Perhaps it was the onesided schooling he took from raheem that broke his confidence and exposed him as a one dimensional fighter.
Secondly, beat corrales with ease? PACMAN? nah i doubt that at the time when corrales was fighting and could possibly face pacman, pacman didnt have the skills to beat corrales and probably would have been stopped.

that's the biggest load of crap i've ever heard, Morales wasn't one dimesional by any means, he showed various times that he could both slug and box, all you have to see is the 11th round to know that if Morales still had something left he would have stopped Raheem in the earlier rounds, the only round Morales actually attacked and knocks Raheem down, cleanly, and it was ruled a slip, and the fact that 4 of his losses came back to back, pretty much shows that it's due to the decline of his abilities, don't know what fights you've been watching to actually try to dub Morales a one dimensional fighter
yea if you knew anything about scoring he means that due to the knockdown he got a 10-8 round, and due to that 10-8 round and that ONE single extra point, Pacquiao "won", so yea learn something before you go out and post and make yourself look like a complete moron![]()
None of what you said changes the fact that morrales had never faced a school slick boxer like raheem, and he got schooled handedly...he couldn't adapt and kept waving his hands for raheem to engage. Then after the fight said one the dumbest things a fighter can say
"he didnt want to fight, he just kept hitting me and moving away"
Morralles was one dimensional...that's why he lost twice to MAB i think three times ,twice to PAC, and schooled by Raheem...moralle was highly overrated IMO good, but no way on the same level as MAB and JMM

Elterrible im not sure what goes through your mind on a daily basis, im guessing its kinda like when you've got bunny ears on an old T.V. and your trying to get a signal but theres nothing but snow!Obviously you didnt read my response little boy so I'm going to repeat myself. I never denied that the Pacquiao vs. JMM fights wern't close, because they were! I'm talking about the comment "the only reason he won was because of the knockdown". Thats jibberish, yea knockdowns are a part of boxing and JMM couldnt stay on his feet and it caused him to lose, no freakin duh Elterrible, so do yourself a favor and try to get a signal!
And why is it that everyone talks about Pacquiao almost losing to JMM (a great fighter) when Mayweather CLEARLY lost to Castillio (a good but not great fighter)?

not to mention many believe that Morales won the second fight, which was the most TECHNICAL fight of the 3
first off don't call me little boy cause unlike you i'm no kid, it's no jibberish because even a flash knockdown would have done it, don't kid yourself thinking that Manny was anywhere close in stopping JMM, the thing you don't understand is that Pacquiao ONLY won due to the knockdown, cause if it weren't for that, there is NO way anyone would have been able to have him ahead of JMM
well then going by your way of thinking, Jones Jr must of been pretty one dimensional as well, cause the first time he stepped in the ring against a hard hitting fast southpaw in Tarver he barely got a MD, then got KTFO in 2, with only one shot, brutally KO'd in his next fight against Johnson, and then barely managed to make it out of the 11th to lose by UD against Tarverfunny how that "logic" works out
That's your logic not mine, dude i think you should have someone read aloud to you, because it seems that you're processing the information wrong...you used erik's one victory over pacman as leverage to him being better than JMM and MAB, and the fact that he was able to slug with pacquiao instead of box. It's your logic that he's not one dimensional based off what he did against an underschooled pacman, once roach was able to get manny to wait and counter a little bit, morrales was done. An d they learned that after watching raheem beat the hell out of him, only difference was Zahir didnt hit as hard as Manny.
Now just to entertain the silly comments about roy...only an idiot would argue that jones was one dimensional.
BTW don't take it personal, im sure erik morrales doesn't pay you to be his internet guardian

Hell I'd say lineal champ means more than the Belt Champs at this point.
I hope you are not trying to make a case for Mayweather for taking on Baldomir as a lineal champ. That was a horrible fight.
I think it's pointless to say a guy is "scared" by jumping 2 weight divisions.
The fact of the matter.. there just isn't enough time to fight everyone along the way in every weight division, but I legit case against Floyd is not hard to make. He was not the king of ANY of the divisions after Lightweight.
Pac cherrypicks and KOs his opponents. PBF does the same, but makes a mockery of his opponent everytime. He doesn't take care of business, he doesn't take titles away (bar Hatton), and he doesn't give fans anything to be desired.
"Floyd needs to inject Xylocaine into his balls to gain the courage to fight Pacquiao."
- and I quote from some random guy on the internet
where the hell did i use it as leverage, learn to read buddy i said that Morales' win over Pacquiao was probably more due to Pacquiao's lack of technical ability at the time, because Morales pretty much showed he was shot in his very next fight, not taking it personal at all, just saying that Morales is one dimensional is incredibly narrowminded, and no i don't think that Jones is one dimensional by any means, but using the same logic THAT YOU USED, of how the first time Morales faced a "slick" fighter, he lost by a lopsided margin, the same can be said about Jones Jr, cause well you know very well how he's been as of since the Tarver KO, both fighters (Morales & Jones) lost so many fights (and badly at that) back to back, due to weight problems and decline in ability
as for you last comment, you're one to talk, this is from the dude who thought Taylor was the future of boxing at one point...![]()
