    Please! Manny has the heart of a lion. You have no idea how much pride a Pilipino has. Manny would rather be killed in the ring than give up. The 12th round says it all. Morales and Manny poured everything they had left. Morales won and I congratulate him and his fans for the victory, the better boxer won. But do not disrespect Manny and his lineage. The man is a warrior!

      i have no idea about what happening in the fight.manny would rather be killed in the ring than give up? what is the action of being a warrior and a quitter as you said. if it is true, why the referee let it to continue the fight? where the cut came from? from the headbutt or a big punch given by eric?

        I am just commenting on the idea that Manny wanted to quit the fight.

          That wasn't a look of giving up but rather a look of pain and worry.

          The author of this thread made it out to be that Pacman had a look of giving up.

          The referee asked him if he wanted to continue; he listened closer and nodded his head. That's no way to quit. In the post fight interview, he said never in the whole match did he think of quitting, but he acknowledged/praised the Morales camp.

            CHINGON .... fast forward to the 12th Round and test your theory about Pac "wanting to quit", you don't make sense.
            Manny wasn't messing with Cortez when he mumbled "HUH". He had taken alot a big head shots since the instructions were given and his second language wasn't too clear in his head. There's no way he was pretending to not understand or whatever other "quit" theory you might try to build around any of Manny's actions last night.

            Both Pac and Morales gave it all, with no sign of quit at any time in that fight.

                No way ! Manny fought like a tiger -- I do not think that a thought of giving up has ever crossed his mind.
