Erik Morales, impossible to deny, took warrior-hood to a new echelon that left southpaw Manny Pacquiao valiantly in his wake while dramatically winning a close 12-round decision Saturday in the MGM Grand Garden.

“With both guys wearing those gloves, it’s hard to really hurt an opponent if you can go to the body or head and fire like Manny can. It was like pillows compared to Reyes. Sure, we want a rematch and a rematch with Reyes gloves. It will be a different story,” Roach insisted

take the loss like a man already ...

Yup I know... And I don't buy it too much either...so I'm talking about the cut that distracted Pac's vision for most of the fight....

the cut and impaired vision really killed any chances of PAC winning, Erik with his boxing skills and longer reach exploited the advantage to the hilt ....

VIVA MEXICO - VIVA MORALES !!!
