After a knockout loss, MOrales has to be one of the few who...

By the way, as far as this fight goes (Pac-Morales III), I don't give Erik much of chance at all. Based on what I've seen in the Raheem fight and of course the last fight vs. Pac, in addition to what looks to be another Herculean struggle for him to make weight, I just don't believe he can do anything other than put up a spirited effort in a punishing loss. That's because he's a warrior and has all the heart in the world, if no longer the talent that made him one of boxing's best for years. I respect Morales alot, but this will be the end.

Alot of people were confident in Castillo's chances in beating Corrales in the rematch after he was stopped in their first fight. Many thought that Corrales took more punishment and would be the worse for wear once the second war escalated. Of course, this was before WeightGate I. After the weigh-in fiasco, I was supremely confident Castillo would KO Corrales, for every reason that's been debated here a million times about cutting weight. I'm now closing this can of worms before it spills out everywhere.

Morales has a lot to motivate him for this fight. One, his pride. He can't accept a knockout loss, muchless to a guy he already beat. He feels he is still technically superior to Manny, and thus won't accept the knockout loss. Another motivation is to win and retire on a high note, having beaten the guy that KOed him - twice. This will also mark a trilogy that Morales has won since losing to Barrera twice. He needs to win a trilogy. He also sees that Manny is looking forward to a huge payday with Barrera and Barrera vice versa, so he would love to disrupt that. Though the bottomline, he knows his last few fights have gone sour and he has to win before retiring if he does anytime soon. I see this going to decision and still a 50/50 on who will win. Morales is obviously training harder than ever for this fight and will be fully prepared. Hopefully Manny does as well and it'll be a slugfest till the end. I don't see either getting KOed because Morales has too much pride to let that happen again and Manny although he is very stunnable, he stays up from the adrenaline of his people. Neither getting KOed in this fight, though someone will lose a decision.

Im a filipino but i like morales too. he is the only guy that fight the guy on the top and really wants it. But ofcourse im rooting for pac cause i like him not beacause im a filipino but because i like him period.

thats fuckin mexican do you expect them to want pac to win? Bro, even though were both Pacfan, no need to post like that.

after getting knocked out, have so many peoplee belive he can win tha third fight. this is an interesting situation, although he was knoked out, MANY people belive he can still win(pretty much everyones giving him a chance xcept tha infamous PAC NUTHUGGERS) i dont recall a situation like this. why is it that so much people still have faith in him??? Well i am a Pacfan, because EM lost his last 3 out of 4 fights, i believed that will be his motivation to win. And also since his rivalry with Barrera, Erik wanst a win over Pac to show that even though he lost to Barrera, his legacy is better than MAB with a win over Pac. There is always a chance of an underdog fighter winning. With EM, there is a chance of him winning against Pac, but since i am a Pacfan, i will be rooting for Pacquiao of course.

i love morales and I'm mexican and i think he can win but it wont happen pac by late KO or decision

Morales will win a few rounds, but he won't win th fight because Pac will do it again.... Morales is the only few who is willing to face the man who KO'd him. Not like Chicken MAB and JMM(even thought he has a gift draw he doesnt want a rematch.) I have to disagree with you. I thought JMM won that fight handily. He won every round except for rounds 1 and 2 and had -3 points for the KDs. Other than that, Pac was actually controlled all night long.

i disagree with you bro I am one of the biggest pacnuthugger in these boards and I also became a fan of Erik after the first fight and for giving PAC a rematch, with the exception of Salvador Sanchez, Erik is my favorite Mexican fighter... I know Erik will give PAC a great fight and can possibily win by decision ... what us pacnuthuggers disagree with Erik Nuthuggers is the fact that we believe that Erik CAN NOT KO Pac!! PAC by Late Rounds KO/TKO Try not to call yourself a nuthugger, buddy.

the reason why so many people have faith in morales to win is because he is a warrior with trmendous heart and pride, this guy doesnt know when to quit, he dont want no easy fights, no tune up fights, doesnt want any other opponent right now other than manny pacquiao, this says it all about morales character. Every great fighter has one great fight left in them, and this could be morales. lets not forget that morales is also a fantastic boxer and he does have what it takes to beat pacquiao, i would not be surprised if morales wins this fight. the one thing about this fight that could swing it for morales is his desire, he got KO'd, knocked down, and lost a fight in brutal fashion, thats never happened to him. by him wanting pacman straight away its showin he wants to settle the score, he aint waitin like barrera or marquez, hes only focused on pacquiao.

You dont have to look far back to see a situation EXACTLY like this . Its called Corrales vs Castillo.

Morales is going to KO Pacman. As a Mexican, we have pride and Morales will not stand to lose to Pacman. If he goes out, he's going out like a Mexicano, in a blaze of glory. morales can't even hurt a bloody 1-eyed 1-dimensional PAC in the 1st, much less wobble him. he got brutally KO'd in the 2nd. so how can you be so sure of even a KO for morales? just because? btw, all countries and races have big pride too, not only mexicans.

For me morales is still the most dangerous rival for manny. I am a pac fan but i dont consider morales a done boxer. I think morales is still better than barrera, JUAREZ or barrios. But what about those stupid morales and marquez nuthuggers? Pacs nuthuggers are better posters than those morales and specially marquez. xcaret is the most dumbmess and ferocity is a numbskull

Just like Marquez whooped Pacquiao, yep. JMM who wont fight pac for 750k!

Cause he's a baddass, he's what you call a warrior. He moves up in weight everybody follows. He fights the best, everybody has to follow his lead and that through out the divisions much like Delahoya who fought everybody, Morales always fights whomever. Morales can box, but choses to slug it out with his opponet not giving a fuck if he gets hit. This time he wants to win for himself and for his team, that to me says it all. Morales will win!

thats fuckin mexican do you expect them to want pac to win?

that tells you how much heart the guy has..
