  • What Were Key Factors in Erik Morales beating Pacquiao?

    Can anyone tell me what was the key for Erik Morales beating Manny Pacquiao the first time?
    Does anyone believed that moving up in weight to fight to face Zahir Raheem affected him in his rematch with Manny?

      I still say the only reason Morales won that first fight was because Pacquiao wasn't allowed to wear the punchers' gloves. It was so different in the second fight when Pacquiao was allowed to wear his gloves, it's not even funny.

      Pacquiao would have knocked Morales out in all three fights with Reyes gloves. I truly believe that.

          Mannys inexperience was the key. Weird flurries, and always trying to setup the left. Maybe his gloves too

            Pressure behind a good jab.

              good jab, counter punching skills, an iron chin, and some pressure

                  It might have because the second fight between erik and pac was looking very similar for the first four rounds to how the first fight turned out. Then pac punches started to affect erik and thats what turned the fight around.

                  The key factors to erik beating pac in the first fight was timing and having better boxing skills. On that night pac speed and power was not enough to overcome erik boxing ability.

                  cotto will beat pac for the same reason erik beat him. plus he is bigger and stronger
