Pacquiao on the other hand, has his celebrity on his plate, politics, pool, lack of sleep, and a lacklustre performance against Larios (granted, even a below par pac performance can be a great one) all adds up to Morales UD for me.
What is the difference between Morales in the 2nd fight and Morales in the coming fight? He had nothing to bring on the table but his fighting heart, that's all. He had no tune up match. Unlike Pac when he fought Larios. Erik probably is afraid to sport another loss before this fight w/ Pac. Again, he has weight problems. That's an emotional burden on his part. He has to eat less and train at the same time. Oh boy, that's close to insurmountable. Pac is focused w/ training ever since he was in the Phils. As I've said, the better conditioned fighter will win this fight. I don't see that in Morales. Pac is the man.
