The draw with JMM should have been a S.D win for pac? Your opinion. Aside from the first round, Marquez outboxed him for the rest of the fight with a destroyed nose. And no...he can't fight backwards. Eric was a shot and tired fighter...PERIOD. You can claim that it was all Manny's power that knocked him down...but when you fight a boxer who just doesn't have it anymore and is trying to brawl...you get the outcome we saw. So don't claim that the Morales fight was a product of Manny's great improvements. While fighters can always improve...Manny is essentially a brawler...and brawlers are going to get hit. Which leads me to the the original point of this topic. To claim that a fighter with Manny's style can simply just move up in weight and fight fighters who are bigger punchers than him...and he can easily win these fights is absurd. Larios came into the fight taller?! Didn't know fighters could increase their height. Larios is in no shape or form the same strength and build as Manny. He also has a ton of miles on him. Yet he still shook Manny....why....because Manny's style invites that. Again, Manny is an exciting fighter and deserves credit for his rise...but people shouldn't get carried away.
