RING IQ--------- pacquiao or Erik Morales??

i'm a Pac fan, but I'd be a fool to say he has better ring IQ than Morales...Lets face it, pac is a relentless, brawling, pressure fighter...he uses angles and comes at you until you submit...if you watch pac/morales 1 you see how Morales has better ring IQ and adjusted to Pac

"Pacquaio learned to use his right hand" is such a overused and annoying statement.

Morales by far. He had a better ring IQ and he had bigger balls and ego which also were counter productive for him. Paquiao is a better athlete though, no denying that.

Learning to use his right hand doesn't make Pacquiao a genius, most fighters use their weaker hand from the start. Pacquiao rarely makes adjustments to his fighting style, it's pretty much the same everytime and he still hasn't learnt how to cut off the ring. Morales is way ahead in ring IQ as are most world champion level fighters.

It should be Pacquaio. Why? Remember the first fight Pacquaio nonexistent right hand? In the second and third fight, Pacquaio made sure his right hand was like a magnet to Morales face. Pacquaio ring IQ was underrated and he showed that against Oscar when he boxed and counterpunched him beautifully. Hahaha oh god thanks for the laugh :lol1:

Pacquaio ring IQ was underrated and he showed that against Oscar when he boxed and counterpunched him beautifully. right because we all know Oscar was in his prime and not a dead corpse and the same goes for Morales :nutkick:

OK I love Pacquiao but please show me a fight where he shows that without speed and explosiveness he could be successful? Please tell me a fight where the Pacquiao in the early round is a completely different fighter than the fighter in the later round. I love Pacman but he epitomizes relying on his God given abilities.

when paqcuioa was obsessed with boxing he had the best ring IQ.. hes been getting more and more careless..

Morales. he's a bag of tricks. yes to that

Manny was so great at making adjustments.

Terrible is a smarter fighter than Pac Pac just had to box more when he moved up in weight he still relied more on speed than smarts neither guy has ever been a pure technician who relied on ring IQ Terrible had a little more versatility to his style though

well Morales.... his feints and technique is legendary. but Pacquiao is still the greater fighter

def morales he made some adjustments in the maidana that was jacking maidana up i loved it.

Morales, more technically sound. Morales relies more on his skill than anything, Pac is more on heart and just freak ability. did he adjust for the Jones fight when he saw Barrera lose to him?

Pacquiao, he learned to use his right arm hate to change subjects on my own thread but great f*cken sig man..

Is this a joke?

When they fought closest to both of their primes, Morales controlled range and figured Pacquiao out, then beat him soundly. Pretty conclusive to me Posted from Boxingscene.com App for Android
