Pacquiao/Morales III: will Morales come in overweight?

:boxing: heheheh

Morales always made weight.... weakened or not he hasn't failed making weight for a fight.... well..... there's always a first time.....

I think Morales will come in at 136, the people will say he came in at 135, and then he will be weakened from the weight loss.

ohh well id he does, another overweigtherd mexican Castillo Corrales then Moralez wouldnt that be something Especially since Corrales is 100% Mexican:nonono:

Any word on Morales' weight? I saw training pics, but that's all.

Boxers lose 10 pounds overnight, and last time I heard he was 142 lbs. So I don't think he'll have problems making weight. He'll probably will have to lose less than 10 pound on this one. He still has one month.

Morales will make weight, it is still one month to go.

ohh well id he does, another overweigtherd mexican Castillo Corrales then Moralez wouldnt that be something that is something....

Yeah he looks like he's in a great shape...for a 140lbs fight. Seriously, being 142lbs now with less than a month to go, you'd think he was fighting at 135lbs or really good shape for a 140lbs. The other big thing I'm wondering. Ok so he's been in velocity and working off this weight yet has 12lbs more to go. This means he's gonna be working the rest of the way to get rid of it. Is he training to fight Manny or training to lose the weight? I suppose he really feels he can use the same gameplan as the 1st fight to beat Manny though Manny and Roach worked on a strategy to counter that for the 2nd fight. If Morales tries that same thing in the 3rd fight assuming it really was just weight issues of why he lost the 2nd, then he's gonna take a serious beating. I think Erik's plan is to get in the best physical shape that he has ever been and then his advanced technical skills and strength ... you got to consider how heavy he was when he started the velocity training, for sure its was more than 12 pounds ... although i still think manny will win the 3rd fight, i also see the it will be the most competitive...

have u ever tried losing 12 pounds in a month? i am no boxer, not even an sportive type, but when i put my mind to it i can easily loose 2.5 pounds per week, with right amount of food intake combined with excersize, in four weeks I can loose 10 pounds (mostly fat, lol) and feeling a lot healtier & stronger in doing so ... boxers are professionals who everytime they fight loose a lot of poundage, and they are used to this, i really dont see any problem here ...

i can hear the excuses now

its a win win situation for pac even if em makes the weight he is drained come fight night if he comes overweight he gets 1mil not bad

Yes,i Believe Morales Will Show Up Overweight To Take An Advantage So He Can Beat Pacquiao But I Don't Think He's Gonna Win.

i think morales is risking coming in over weight big time, he's gotta lose 12lbs in a month! that is no easy task and isnt good for you, unless you're a fat sack of shit that can lose 12lbs and it won't effect you, but being as small as he is trying to lose 12lbs that fast is 1: dangerous, 2: extremely straining on the body 3: hard as fuck when you're that small. morales risks coming in over wieght bery easily this time, and he also put himself at risk of losing the fight by doing so. focusing mainly on weight takes away from you training for the fight because it is the main agenda. also drying out effects a fighters activity level as well as his stamina and overall performance. morales is in a tough spot.

i used to think that pac would take this one easily but now i am starting to change my mind a bit. if morales actually is fit for the fight i think he can pull a ud just like he did the first time around. in the second fight he wasnt fit enough to get out of the way of those wild punches that pac throws. if he can get away from them and catch pac off balance we will se another win for morales.

i think he will easily get to 130, he is only at 142 now ... seeing the latest pics, he seem to be in good shape ... http://www.box-latino.com/images/img_notas/MoralesPresajeMelia.jpg Yeah he looks like he's in a great shape...for a 140lbs fight.

12 pounds is a lot of weight to lose in the lighter divisions. But i believed Erik will make it.

Yes. I think that he'll take the 2 lbs. that PAC is offering for 1 mil.
