Has any fight been this hyped?

Long Live the Mexican and Pinoy Fighters !

I believe the reason for the hype up of this fight is these two are proven Warriors. Always leave everything in the ring, no running just straight boxing. With DLH and Hopkins it was a big fight (IMO Overhyped even though) but there was a 50/50 chance it was gonna be a dud just like it was. This fight promises fireworks from two pyrotechnics that have shown nothing but that in previous fights. We also have the most reveered Mexican fighter since Chavez and the most reveered Phillipines fighter (probably ever?). The Nationality thing is a huge part. Example: The World Cup, when your country competes places close down when your country plays, when its not in, everyone forgets about it and just watches their national league.

I cant wait, got the beer and chips ready

I will say i was psyched about the JMM-PAC fight as well. There is a matter of fact I was in the middle of a move and I actually ordered HBO and cable just for the fight. I drove 250 miles took my sleeping bag with me (my dad and little bro came along too) and slept in a house with no furniture except for some chairs, inflatable matress, kitchen table and washer and dryer.

It's because you have nationalism behind this fight. It's like Mexico versus the Phillipines. The Mexicans want revenge because Pacman already destroyed one of their Mexicans(Marco Antonio Barrera)

man i guess its part of the excitement for some, but the nationality thing just kills it, like i want to objective about this fight, and then somone's like "ALL YOU MEXICANS GOING DOWN",and i didnt even like barrera, but its like...****, i hate you now. :P keep that **** to a minimum! because already you can tell that nobody who wins, that kinda ****s gonna blow up even worse afterwards!

This fight should get plenty of hype, I'm almost starting to count off the weeks before it on my calender because this fight promeses to be a damn good one.

I understand completely...it's like when one of the English dudes start talking **** about an American fighter...than it becomes a USA verses England thing.

The pay-up will be the easy part . The posts coming from the Pinoys in the days after the fight will be very excruciating

I wont mind it when guys like you, jomapac, fist-fest, miron lang, kepsy, chups, etc...talk **** because you guys are capable of having logical thoughts and making sane claims about your fighter. It's the people that just sit here all day and say of Pacquiao, "Manny's two fisted punching power will kill Morales in 3 rounds. The first mistake Morales makes the fight is over! Morales is a decent fighter but Manny is god!" It's those guys I'll have the problem with. I can take the flak from you ****ers though.

See I can't wait for that. I know it's gonna suck if Pac wins and I have to shell out all my dough and suffer through the severe personal anguish of seeing my fighter lose and all of the Pac lovers flip out like Pac's superman...

But if and when Morales wins I'm gonna be all:






It will be a thing of beauty. And Morales looks hard as ****in nails in some of these fight posters I'm seeing so I know he's gonna come in ready to **** some **** up.

I want Morales to win, but I've watched alot of Pac's earlier fights, so now I wont go so far as to SWEAR Erik will win. I was impressed with what I've seen so far (still have more to go) but I've been a fan or Morales for many yrs, so I still gotta root for him. I've not made any bets on this fight cause a while back I donated out a great deal of my points. I still have plenty...I'm just not sure who I wanna bet with!

[tracylee]

Bro, clear winner or not, controversial or not, it would not be the end. Believe me, it'll be the start of another round of MORE howling, MORE growling, MORE bitching, MORE "I told you's" from the outside protagonists - the Pinoy and Mexican fans!!!

Using Tracylee's words: OH, BROTHER!!

Oh my God...could you imagine a draw?!? that would be terrible, if only over the feedback at this site! I will be rooting for Morales, but if he wins, I wont be in any of the "yeah, yeah, told ya..Pac is one dimensional, etc.." cause I now know differently. I do think Eriks's chin is much better than some give him credit for, therefore no knocking him out. I'm beginning to think it'll go the distance, and regardless it should be an amazing battle, cause neither guy believes in backing down, and neither one cares much for defense!
