    Answer his question Mak.
    I hate to get drawn away from my question. I also brought in cotto and hated that. My question only concerned with morales and pacman in their first fight. Just wondering what fight plan morales had to beat up on pacman in their 1st fight.

      pacuqiao fans are just delusional fans who belive he can KO everyone. fact is, put him in there with a boxer and counter puncher he will be embarassed and made to look FOOLISH.
      I'm really finding it hard to follow your logic on EM's drainged weight issue.

      I could understand why people strongly believe DLH was weight drained. He hadn't fought at 147 since Gatti in 01'.

      Erik Morales first W against Pac he was 129 1/2 lbs.

      2nd fight w/ Pac he was 128 1/2 lbs.

      3rd fight w/ Pac he was 129 lbs.

      Your argument is flawed.

      Don't hate on Pac because he couldn't bring his A game.

          "Every great fighter has one last fight left in them" or something along those lines. Simply he was able to push Pacquiao back. If he watch the fight Pacquiao was backing straight back. Pac was also a little bit inexperienced at that time but he clearly learned from that exp.

            Simply put,EM just boxed him silly,worked behind the jab and didn't trade as much as he is used to!!Except for maybe round 12,in which he traded shots and lost badly!!

                      he wasn't faded 'til the 3rd fight.

                      morales looked fine in the 2nd fight 'til he got worn down.
