“When I first fought him it was at 130 pounds. The second time he would not give me the chance to fight at 132 pounds and now he is fighting at 147 and I am coming back to fight at 147 also. I’m hoping that at a time not too long from now when the people see I can still do great, great things in the ring, I’m hoping that Manny Pacquiao will give me the chance to show he’s not the best in the world, because what I remember after twelve rounds is Manny Pacquiao crying—and crying and crying and crying because he knew about the beating he had just taken and he knew at that time there was somebody technically better than him. He had to find some way to be at an advantage to try and control me. That’s the way history was written, but here I am—brand new.”
Now Erik is one of my favorite fighters but I think he was punch drunk when he said this :dunno:
ah **** man..come on Erik. Morales is one of my absolute favorite EVER ...but this is starting to make me like him less I mean COME the **** on I think Morales was better than Pac too but 1. have some damn respect don't bad mouth your opponent like that and 2. win your comeback fight against a bum first THEN start talking shit. I have a bad feeling Morales will look like shit and probably get owned by the bum
Pac could go back to 140 or 135 and still beat Erik today... I just hope Erik hasnt lost to much skill because he was a true beast in the ring at one time
At one time he was a better fighter than Manny, at one time Erik was one of the greatest fighters to ever fight. However, he fell off hard and Manny has grown and improved so far beyond what he once was. Only a handful of fighters have ever operated on the level Manny is operating on right now.
Yea I can agree with you on that right there, Erik was at one time better but over time Pac surpassed him
I'm sorry but Erik is done. There is no way in hell you beat Pac after that long ass lay off and looking like Sulaiman during the lay off. Don't let your weight loss fool you Erik you got a lot of hard work ahead of you if you wanna be even remotely close to what you once were.
Why don't we make a thread on NSB and ask the other members if they think EM was past his prime against Manny?
because all nut huggers will side with each other. Waste of thread really . This is our discussion. You can if you want though!
he's trying to promote his comeback, i can give him a pass easy since he did officially beat pac.
with winning's he made a puncher wear pillows. I love Morales, true warrior, but pac would dismantle him in a couple rounds.
How do think he was Past prime? WTF makes you think he was past prime? before you try to answer this or avoid the question...let me help you. Physiologically there is no human way to determine if he was or not. Its just your ignorant ass opinion. The facts are he was for the last 8 fights VERY competitive and a great warrior. After his losses to PAC he then realized he cant fight no more. You probably never even been in a fight before. A lost can hurt you in more ways than one. A ass kicking can ruin you in more ways than one. Your logic is of pure hate towards Pacquiao so don't deny it. It wont help you!

What?? he's really gonna go to 147? i dont really think he can compete againts the the top 5 Welters.. he is way over the hill.. Once a great champ but he has no business in the ring anymore.. i wish he would just stay retired.. :nonono:
Morales was already past him prime in the 2nd and 3rd fight. Get of Pac's nuts and use your head for once. I'm not hating on Pac... just stating the fact that Morales was past his prime and had been in a lot of wars before his fights with Manny.

Yeah he does get a pass. He is the only fighter to have done that during Manny's rise.
He won 6 straight fights till losing a close decision fight to Barrera and winning a fight with Manny. Some could argue he won 8 straight! Although i thing Barrera won by a close D. After that he lost four straight Two being to Manny beating him into submission! That my flomo friend is how Manny makes you look Old Past prime or dehydrated or what ever excuse you want to come up with...

Same here, I just brush it of as something a proud warrior like him would say...
Are you telling me Morales was in his prime against Manny in all 3 of his fights? :rofl:

fukk i like erik but he's holdin on to that one win for his alltime greatness. he didnt beat the prime pac skillwise, pac was so green that time. prime for prime, pac beats erik everytime.
How the fuk do you know he was past Prime? Why because Manny beat his ass soooo bad? Or are you his doctor? Thats what Manny does he makes people past prime but delivering the ass cuttin of a lifetime. If you wernt a hater of Pac you'd see the Man had a off night against a great fighter in Morrals! brushed his self off and came back and whooped his ass...Twice. Calling me the worst Pactard is a compliment cockface. :wank:

You are probably the worst Pactard on this site with Barracuda.
God lucky? EM was already past his prime and shot in the first fight. He put on a boxing clinic against Pac. Pac got his ass handed to him by a past prime EM. EM even gave Pac a chance to knock him out in the 12 round and he couldn't do it.
EM came off a horrible lost, was past his prime, and shot in the 2nd and 3rd fights. The man looked like a raisin in the 2nd and 3rd fights. He was also in a lot of wars before his fights with Pac.
