    Morales wasn't in any serious trouble in the 12th, his balance was just iffy because he was exhausted.

      ....He was hurt for sure. He nearly fell at the end of the round and was definitely unsteady on his feat. One more big shot from Pac would have put him down IMO.

        But if Pac had caught him with a good shot, he would have gone down, and lost the fight. It was a ****** move by him, but it ended okay.

          What we're all forgetting also is why MORALES prefers the WINNING GLOVES, which is because his fists/knuckles are a lot more brittle compared to PAC's. So in a sense he would have to somewhat hold back a little more umph to prevent fist/knuckle/hand injury.

          But then again we still wouldn't know what would have happened if they were to have used CLETO REYES gloves.

            Morales simply gives the fans their moneys worth. He is the purest warrior in the sport (along with Gatti). He's never in a dull fight & I love it when he gets tagged & it fires him up even more!! A living legend already and he isn't even 30 yet...scary...Love to see him vs JMM soon...That'll be one for the purists...

              Manny did catch him with a good shot.

                  Morales figured out two things early in this fight. First, he could take Manny's flush left hand, or right hand, and stay upright. Second, and more importntly, Manny wasn't even attempting combinations to the head. Take these two things and mix-in Morales ability to recover from big shots and keep throwing, he could do whatever the **** he wanted against Pac.

                  ******, yes. Brilliant, yeh.
