Thats for sure! even if he gives morales a good fight i will be covinced that he is the real deal. i dont take nothing away from manny but people like to point out what he did to marquez. if i was a manny fan i wouldnt like to talk about that fight. he couldnt finish marquez and marquez was fighting for 12 rounds with a broken nose. that right there should tell you that maybe it wasnt as one sided as some people think. i think he caught marquez off balance.
robbie peden against nate campell. nate was giving robbie all he could handle when he got smart and put his hands down. peden hit with a solid shot and knocked nate's lights out. not a all time great but it was still tight.
yeah i had my hopes up for the de la hoya fight but not like i do for this fight because in oscar's last fight you could see that his mind was not really in boxing anymore. he has accomplished everything any one could want from the sport. he needs to hang them up and move on wife his life and his fine ass wife.
if he has so much power marquez shouldnt have been able to get up from that punch. i guess we will find out in march just how hard he really punches. i might be wrong, but i doubt it.
thats funny! tell me who has manny knocked out that was at the level of morales. i know what he did to barerra and how he couldnt finish marquez when he had three good opportunities in the first round come on man. someone with as much power as yall say manny has should be able to take out a hurt fighter. especially as hurt as yall make it seem marquez was.
Morales is an experienced fighter and has seen many different styles. he is not going to have any problem fighting a one dimensional fighter like manny. manny beat mab on a bad night and now the philipines is ready to crown him #1 pound 4 pound. a rematch would have proved that, but now he is going to face morales and will be exposed.
the dude got robbed straight up in the olympics. it wouldnt have been wise for him to take a fight that he had to many emotions. he his would not have been in the fight and couldve cost him a loss.
i think de la hoya has the right tools to beat winky. he has a better reach and a solid jab. i think thats what affected mosely in his fights with winky is that he didnt throw his jab enough. winky was beating him to the punch. with dlh he would have to respect his power which is something that he didnt worry about with mosely.
what are you talking about he did catch marquez in the later rounds with those same shots. but they didnt have a much on them. which means that manny power was fading. it was a combination of marquez countering and figuring out that manny relied too much on that punch. morales will not let up and he also will not underestimate manny's power.
mab had to leave his training camp because of trouble in big bear and he had some health issues you dont think that affected him coming into the fight come on?
thats one thing everyone can agree on is that this is going to be a great fight. early candidate for fight of the yr. they got styles that have classic written all over it. i just hope that there is no excuses after the fight from either camp.
your right they are excuses. but i guess we will see in march if it was a good night for manny or a bad night for barerra cause if morales knocks manny out every one will know that it was a fluke. which i think it was
thats what im talking about morales is not just a fighter that will come to slug it out. i think the reason he did with barerra is because he didnt respect barerra power. but if he does that against manny he will get knocked out and he knows that. so expect a different fighter to come in on march and show all these haters that their boy is over rated.
you must not have seen barerra agaist junior jones. he got his ass whooped in that fight. if it goes into the later rounds manny has a better shot of a knockdown. but dont underestimate morales' heart manny has never been in there with as much heart as morales.
i agree these guys are going to trade. thats for sure but i dont think manny cant take morales power. yes he took marquez shots but he is not known for his power so you knew that wasnt going to happen. barerra will wear you down then knock you out with constant punishment to the body. morales can punch harder then both of them.
would i have to be a real boxing fan or would i have to know that those guys are no tuneup fighters. but like i said he didnt ko'd barerra. and the same with marquez he dropped him but didnt ko him. manny has power and thats why he will knock down opponents and some with lesser chins he will knockout. but morales is higher in competition and really does have a good chin. there is a chance morales will get dropped. because manny does have some power
if manny ko's morales i will be surprised. three of his best shots couldnt knock out marquez out. and his chin is not as good as morales. wait till manny feels morales power. he is going to be in a situation that he has not been in. the way he reacts to this situation will be the difference. because morales is not 3k or marquez. el terrible will let manny fall into his own trap.
look man come march you will see what im telling you. and its that manny isnt as good as you think he is. now if you want to get upset about it then thats on you!!
damn it looks like pacman should be considered in the all time everything. anything someone asks a question a whole lot of people want to jump on his dick about it. i guess he should be considered ali jr.
thats true but everyone seems to guarantee a knockout. if this fight goes into the later rounds then i do think manny could have a chance of knocking out morales. if marquez took three of manny's best shots and still went the distance then i dont think morales should have a problem with that punch. which seems to be the only one manny throws. morales has a better chin then marquez and punches harder then barerra and marquez. something to think about.
manny does have that kind of power but morales is not the kind of fighter that gets knocked out. this is why i wished a rematch with barerra would have been done first so everyone could see that he wasnt 100% for that fight. then we wouldnt even dicussing manny and morales.
i think this fight has alot to do with the pride of the mexican people. pac-man, i hate to say beat barerra and that was a mexican hero. so this is like redemption for us. alot of people arent giving morales a shot, but i think they will be suprised. i dont know maybe that is my biased opinion. but i have seen em fight many times to know that he can keep throwing punches for twelve rounds without showing any sign of getting tired. manny seemed to get tired in the fight with marquez. he hit jmm with the same punches that he hit him with in the first round but they didnt have the same effect on them cause he didnt have much behind him. i think marquez also showed that manny can be timed and countered easily. if morales can take manny's power in the early rounds then i think he will take manny into deep waters and out point him.
manny will tire in the later rounds, he is not used to going the distance that often. most of his fights end within the first few rds. beacause of his power. he too often looks for that ko punch. you will notice in all his fights when he is forced to go into the later rounds he is tired and his punches dont have the effect
