FINALLY! Just watched Morales/Pacman

[JOM'S]

i saw the fight saturday night on the rerun...I scored it 115-114 for Morales, pacqiao deserves a rematch, and the can wear the mexican gloves this time....emanuel steward explained about the gloves, saying that the winner gloves were softer and donot make a clenched fist, but he also added that had they worn the mexican gloves, it was more likely that morales would have knocked out pacqiao intead of pacqiao koing morales.

that's the beauty of it, if they use the reyes gloves on there re-match, we will see a much more explosive, bloodier fight ...

No disrespect to the majority of Pac fans - but the minority are clinging on to any issue which deflects away from the obvious, the obvious being that on the night PAC LOST to a more technically gifted fighter.

This gloves issue is BS - EM was just as likely to win Big with the mexican gloves on, and knowing what a warrior he is i suspect he will use them if they meet again.

PROPS to both guys though.

For my point of view... Gloves is not an issue. The real reason of PCAMAN's defeat is the head-butt.
It is hard to fight a methodical fighter with only 1 eye. But as the PACMAN said: Charge it to experience, Better luck next time.
and next time, the power of the PACMAN will surely show and EM can surely feel it

gloves were not the reason... the headbutt (though it affected pac's gameplan) was also not the reason he lost... actually i was a bit surprised when the three judges scored it 115-113 for morales... i watched as a fan of manny but personally, that fight should have been 1116-112... morales dominated manny... but manny showed his heart and the SUSPECT CHIN everybody has been talking about... now they know manny's chin is tough too... back to the topic... the reason why he lost was murad and roach... murad for all the distractions he places on manny (especially when it comes to finances), and roach for overtraining manny... 160 rounds of sparring is too much... i hope they get it straight the next tie around...

yeah... the fight is a big lesson that will defenitely teach not only Manny, but the whole team Pacquiao(that badly needs a revamp).

headbutt or the gloves were the issues... when i was watching it again pac's eye was already being swollen shut before the headbutt happen... pac fought a great fight he was just not the better man that night...

If they fight again they will wear Morales' gloves again. He won the fight, he's the much bigger draw Morales is holding all the cards.

if i were pacquiao, i'll take my chances with the reyes gloves! let it be.. that morales might ko me first. it's just a matter of who draw the first hard punch! as we all know, pacquiao got round 1 and who knows morales might just be another marquez! there were lots of theories before and after the fight! had it been that reyes gloves were worn by pacquiao, there would be no discussions around here anymore. and u wont hear me say a thing if he lost using that reyes gloves. some people here think that it was not an issue, well, maybe not. but for some (and that includes me), it is! and the headbutt? who doesn't say it didn't affect pacquiao's vision? only some headless poster would think of it that way. this post maybe bias (for all i know, even if i said this isn't, some of you would think of it as it is so i will admit this is my opinion and all opinions are biased).
