    Actually, I just finished watching the fight and it was pretty close though I do give Morales the fight. There were rounds where PAC did exchange more even though having a less hit %.

    After round four PAC looked real sluggish and for some reason after doing a few combinations would stop moving forward...WHICH WAS THE PLAN! He let Morales continue with his plan to control the pace of the fight. I was real upset. But I do give props for PAC moving up and taking a hard dangerous fight. During the breaks he looked as if he was ready to pass out and would cough.

    But then there were a lot of moments where MORALES looked dead tired and his arms were heavy...PAC should have exposed that.

    Hmmm...REMATCH? Sure...but not for a bit. He needs to take another two or so fights in that weight class or even the one below to feel a bit more comfortable. Still young so hopefully he'll be around for a few more years giving us good fights and not act like a baby like AMED or whatshisface...

      Pac was dominated....he needs to fight MAB and win for a rematch to happen.

        I had it 116-112 for Morales. Both men put up great fights but Morales showed that he was just better than Pacquiao.

              WOW! What a spectacular fight! I scored it 115-113 for Morales, but Pac has NOTHING to be ashamed of..he fought like a champion, but Erik was simply the better boxer and had redemption in mind. Not that it matters, but I scored it like this:
              Morales: 2,3,4,5,7,8 & 11
              Manny: 1,6,9,10 & 12
              Both guys put up one hell of a fight, and both looked very impressive. Excellent fight and more than worth the ppv fee..especially with the Arce vs. Hussein on the card too, which was also an awesome fight!

                  I think Morales just wanted to prove that Pacquiao couldn't knock him out.

                    Agreed. Pac now has a loss and draw gainst two of the three top Mexican Feathers. Lossing to Morales suggests that Barrera's "excuses" might have some merit.

                    So, I'm with you CHUPS, let's see Pac revisit his only win aginst a top-tier Feather.
