Doctors have recommended that Manny Pacquiao undergo plastic surgery to repair the gash he suffered above his right eye Saturday night. There is already talk of a September Pacquiao-Morales rematch.
hmm
I don't think we'll ever see Pacman weighing in at 135 on fight night again. He was all muscle when he fought Morales. I think the lowest we will ever see Pac in the ring again is 137, no less. Every little pound means something on these little dudes and obviously Pac added muscle to fight Morales. If he tries to lose that muscle, we might see another Roy Jones situation on our hands and Pac will be focked. It don't take very many pounds of muscle loss for those little guys to be focked.
I think they should rematch, but I would not have said right off the bat. Nothing's official yet so we will see what happens.
Thats too late in my opinion. Morales needs to keep fighting every 4 months like hes been doing, its the only thing that keeps him in shape since he doesnt go to the gym when there is no fight scheduled.
I understand what you're saying but as a pacfan I don't really trust Manny going at it again with EM. I want Pac to fight someone light first to boost his self esteem again then get ready for a rematch with EM.
I just saw him on the Filipino News Channel and he said that he is ready and he has no problem fighting at 130. I trust him but do I want him to fight EM this year NO. He needs to wait and keep his cool. If he fights EM again this year it might be a career ending move for him (pac).
sept is dlh month, I wonder what he has up his sleves, I say give MAB a second chance vs manny, then if manny makes it past MAB then face morales in feb 06
A sept rematch with MAB is more exciting and I want to see that.
I hope a rematch can take place.But not this september. too early in my opinion.

Morales is one stubborn mofo.
He was hurt in the 12th if he's ever been. When he regained his footing he was standing orthodox and what does he do? He switches southpaw again!!!! the crowd went fucking crazy.. i know i did from my couch.

All I can say is that Pac won the 1st and 3rd rounds and was taking the 5th round in the early going before the headbutt. Possibly 3-2 in favor of Pac before the head butt. So there will always be a question mark or what if. So I think a rematch should be done.
Both Pacquiao and Morales would be better suited to face MAB at this juncture. Morales would have the opportunity to avenge his losses and Pacquiao would have the opportunity to prove hands-down that he can take down the best (MAB, in my opinion).
A rematch would be sweet, but Morales - MAB IV would be a better fight.
A rematch would not be good for Pac, I think. Pac would be hungrier next time but EM may just as well cruise to another close decision if it happens too soon. I thinks Pac moved up too soon and his power at 130 have not been as effective. He may just be too small at that weight given he started fighting as a 106-lb kid.
nah... i mean.. i'd love to see it! but Pac should fight JMM or MAB before a rematch will Morales... but then again, Morales may be moving up in weight... but if this rematch happens, i think the result will be the same.. or if Pac changes his game plan then he has a shot.. otherwise, Morales will win again UD..
rematch is all speculation, PAC wants a rematch, but all is up to Erik who he wants to fight he has the pick of the litter, Manny can just hope to get whats left ...
But I do pray EM, don't go up just yet and stick around at 130...
PAC has do more next time, different game plan, be more aggressive, no more than 135lbs at fight night to retain optimal speed, improve boxing smarts and defense, all is possible ...
VIVA MEXICO - VIVA ERIK the best P4p, Numero UNO!!!
nah i think if he had really been that hurt he would have switched regular stance sure they wobbled him hard shots but he seemed fine and never stopped swinging.
well, suit yourself dude :cool:

morales got fucked up lmao. i dident hear him say they dident hurt i thought he had said pacman hit hard.
You can try viewing some of his interviews in the other sites. He's talking like NONE of Pac's shots got him in trouble :D That crazy southpaw stance he did in the 12th could've caused him a won fight LMAO LOL :p
Yeah I beleive it could have bothered him a bit. but he says this like it made a huge difference erik was pounded the shots he wanted to stamp on his face.
Let's just say he says it to make it easier for his fans to take...Pretty much like when Erik says that none of Pac's punches really bothered him. I did see wobbly legs in the 12th...So let's call it even for both guys :D

Pacmans eye wasent swelled shut how could he not see im just curious most of the blood seem to be running on the side of his eye.
Still some of the blood distracted his vision. And don't get me wrong I'm not trying to make excuses here. I salute Erik for a well-deserved win.
