Why is Barrera and Morales considered shot when they faced Pacquiao?

[Ryannn]

The rematch with Barrera, Barrera was shot.

so pac only beat shot fighters? then why the hell is he number 1 pound for pound?

[nelsoncm]

Every fighter that loses is shot... every fighter that loses is past his prime.

That is... according to boxingscene experts.

So that it would make more sense.................but i dont think Eric 2 was shot..................Morales 3 was shot/stupid game plan.....................

Because Floyd retired.

Morales may have been past his best in the first fight, but not Shot. Second fight, well, not shot but he did have to come back down in weight after being beaten by Raheem. Third fight: Forget it. Morales looked dead just walking into the ring. Making 130 was just to much on his body.

i laugh when people say pac just beat shot fighters. he fought GREAT fighters close to their prime. the only fight where one can say pac's opponent was shot was the third morales fight and the dlh fight. and they weren't even that bad at that time!

he faced the best available. even if people around him says he got no chance.

DLH is a zombie? hardly. barrera was shot? no. you all should appreciate this unique fighter. instead of being blind fans of the likes of floyd, who is about as exciting as watching paint dry.

Morales was past his prime,Barrera was past his prime in the second fight,Hatton`s chin was past his prime as a result of Mayweather and i felt Marquez beat Pacquiao twice.



Manny Pacquiao Resume is not as impressive as people make it out to be.

Revisionist.......After Morales 2.....it was the weight....thus velocity camp.....for more stamina...............he almost won against diaz after at LW.......................
