Pacquiao vs Morales III. Who wins it, how, & why?

[kyle0930]

I voted Pac for KO win...if its true that he will begin his training in August, then he will have a better chance of beating EM again....

[El Gamo]

Em needs to:

Go to Pac's body(:he has been koed earlier in his career by bodyshots)

Not go to war ALL the time

Wear the 8oz gloves,he may break his hands but he needs to go allll out and look at how many times he has stopped Manny in his tracks with the pillows.

Start training NOW and make sure he does not get drained again.

and even after all of this,I still feel Manny has the edge but hopefully Erik's Honour will allow him to elevate himself one las time.He is also back with his father for this fight(his father was not in the corner for the last fight),maybe that will have a bearing.

imo i think EM needs a tune up fight to gauge where he is, as far as desire for the game and conditioning go. if EM can make weight w/out killing his body i give him the boxing edge, but if not i give pac the brawling edge. i hope EM is still hungry, and not hungry for the buffet but rather hungry for the glory.

[babyboNe]

i don't know about em...most recent pic i've seen of him...he look about 160 pounds maybe not but he look much fatter then ever...and he seem to be doing more talking about pac then preparing for another storm...why anger the storm when your getting your self in the middle of its might...

I have my doubts on em...alot of talk he may not even make weight...he may just want this last ppv pay day and hyping it up now so it'll be such an anticipated fight come november...

no denying pac speed and power...now showing boxing skills and quick counters...I can't see em winning at all...even if it was the best morales that ever should up in a boxing ring...

pac is a beast...its for sure pac will come in shape...I just hope its one hell of a fight to remember both warriors...

when its all said and done...pac will be the clear winner...i don't want to say by k.o hopefully em lose standing but it may be a destruction and his corner may stop it...

[Violent Demise]

PACMAN by total demolition of Morales... PAC got pissed with Morales all talk... Imagine Morales saying that he's the one who made PACMAN famous?

What's wrong with that? To a point he did.

[El Gamo]

I'd agree,Pac did get more famous by koing Morales so EM is right although whether he means that interpretation,I don't know. I';m sure Pac's stock rose after the first fight too,he put in a great performance there.

[GAME]

For Morales to win he has to

fight with his head and not his heart
Make sure all the prep is done so he is 100% on the night
stay focused throughout and dont lose composure
Try to put Pac on the back foot
Hands should be high and adopt a stiff jab

For Pac to win he has to

Set the tempo and a pace Morales cant match
Make the Mexican use his ageing legs
Throw his punches in bunches
Be a more evasive target than he was against JMM
Employ a body punching strategy and stick with it

If both of them fight to the best of their ability its hard to seperate them . Erik is past it now but is still capable of skooling Pac even at 80%.It will be hard for Pac to reach the intensity of the 2nd fight so I expect Morales to be better and Pac not quite as good . I can even see a draw but if I had to go 1 way it would be the younger fresher Pac on points

[raleights]

Morales will win. Everybody saying Morales is shot is only adding to his fuel. Morales has always been a prideful man. After getting stopped last time, there is no doubt he's more motivated than ever.

An Error Has Occurred!
Sorry Violent Demise, Wacko can't repeat a karma action without waiting 24 hours...but you know he wants to!!!

Totally agree 100%. I want Morales to go for the kill of the knockout...but...a 12 rounder in his favor wouldn't hurt either.



I voted Morales by decision.

Blasphemy

[raleights]

If I wasn't horrible about putting things into words I'd create a looooooooooooooong post about just how Pac will be knocking Morales out, but seeing that I'm southern illiterate like Lyle I'll keep it short

Pac KO late again

I have to disagree with you with that one GAME. PAC did lose to a bodyshot because he had to lose 17 pounds overnight years ago at 112lbs. He used to have a suspect body, but not anymore. Morales just needs to BOX, BOX, BOX. Stay away, use his jab, hit him with his overhand right, frustrate PAC, and dance away(very fast)... Thats the only way he can beat PAC, If Morales tries to go for the body he's gonna hit on the head, thats why so many opponents stop hitting PAC in the body, because PAC counters to the head or gives multiple combos to the body. It hurts so much, that they stop going to the body and defend...We all know PAC is going after Morales body!!! and at 130 lbs and aging quickly, PAC will target the gut without a doubt, and Morales will lose trying to trade body shot for body shot....He need to use his boxing skills and frusrate PAC out of his game...

[_the_answer_]

i always thought morales had one of the best chin of all time after the 1st fight with pac...
cuz before that fight, pac just koed a thai by a left uppercut that kazzooomed the thai up on the air...

and on the 1st round of that fight, pac hit em with flurries of punches...
and to my surprise, WOW!! he didnt even wobbled and he even came back with his own combos!!!
what a chin, i said...

pac lose that fight...
his camp made a lot of doubtful excuses about it...
about the blood test issues..
(they said pac was forced to be drawn 2 liters of blood 2 days before the fight)
i didnt believe them..

but on the 2nd fight, round 2..
we all saw the 'statement' pac gave about his real power...

EM was back pedalling (the ropes saved him) after getting hit by a left cross as if he was drunk
he almost looked he just got ankle-breaked by allen iversons crossover

that made me think up to this time pac was really cheated on the 1st fight
they were silent about this because they got the $$$$$ when they sued his ex promoter

that also made me think that no one could take pacs punches
(larios was never hit by the left where in both of pacs feet are planted on the canvass,
it was all leaning lefts that he needs to control his power for balance because he was moving to larios's back and maybe for some personal reasons he didnt KILL larios )
if anyone is hit by a looooonnnnngggg left from pac they wont take it well
because even the granitechinned EM didnt

all he need is a good game plan and
his speed and power will make him emerge victorious on the rubbermatch

[El Gamo]

Good points Racso but there is absolutely no way at this stage in his career that EM can just box box box Pac and as Pac is sooo aggressive,anyone who fights him has to go to war somewhere in the fight which is why I said EM should choose his moments.

[pitbullero]

PACMAN by total demolition of Morales... PAC got pissed with Morales all talk... Imagine Morales saying that he's the one who made PACMAN famous?

Then who made him famous Barrera Well if so they're both losers anyway...

[pitbullero]

I voted Pac for KO win...if its true that he will begin his training in August, then he will have a better chance of beating EM again....

He'll start his training this July in the Phil then in august he'll go the US... So train hard El Senior Citizen Moralles Manny's gonna kicked you're a** that you'll never forget!!!!!!

[Galaxy]

Pacquiao may have a tougher go this time cause Morales doesn't wanna go down again, but in the end the Pacman will be standing with his arms raised in victory with another KO
