Was Pacquiao shortchanged???

[AIR_KENG]

Pacquiao lost because Morales was the better fighter on the night, plain and simple.. personal problems are part and parcel of every fighters preperations.. who's to say Morales didn't have any problems leadingb up to the fight?? If he had and he lost I doubt his camp would be making up excuses as to why he lost.. ultimately discrediting Morales of his well deserved win.

we were not discredting morales in any way... how many times should we admnit that he wa the better man in the fight??? morales is out of the topic now, it's an internal problem in team pacquiao that needs to be settled A.S.A.P...

he is overdoing it and it really becomes annoying... you see him in all of the interviews and work-outs of manny, asking so many things about manny's training and laughs with him whenever he's in front of the camera... yes, he rides manny's popularity, but by doing so, he is more on the downside... he losses the respect of pacfans, the only thing that is actually noicing him... papansin ang pucha...

ur damn right. he's a good man pero he's ****in annoying!
sa PBA na lng dapat cya nagstay...haha

Didnt say you were discrediting Morales... The article talks about all the problems Manny had in the run up to the fight and why he 'really' lost the fight!!! If thats not discrediting Morales win I dont know that is.

In life, there are what we call FAIR-WEATHER FRIENDS. They are there and they swarm you when you're UP, but they run for the nearest exit once you're DOWN. It's sad, but that's life. Worse, some of these so-called friends are actually wolves in sheep's clothing, and they pounce on you even when you're already down and out and takes every opportunity to fleece you of what you've got left.

Manny has this kind of people in his team and in his circle of friends. I just hope he does some self-reflection and take time to know in his heart who his TRUE friends are. Dismiss the FALSE ones and throw away all excess his baggages (the mirons, the distractions, etc.) Otherwise, his demise will not come from his boxing opponents, but from those people nearest to him!

Manny is a true Pinoy hero and we don't want to see such talent and potential go to waste!

"Let us not cheapen Pacquiao’s performance by making excuses about the gloves, the referee, the head-butt, the public officials who went to Las Vegas and everything else.

Let us be men and admit that on that night Morales was the better prepared fighter, with a cool and calculating corner unlike the Pacquiao corner which was in chaos and that Morales executed a well thought out fight plan and hope that Pacquiao and his team will do the right thing next time around and that Pacquiao will avenge his defeat."

Smooth how he threw that in there like that.
No excuses,our fighter lost and nuff said!
He'll avenge the loss to Morales the nest time they meet.
GUARANTEED!!

Sounds like Manny should pay Mike Tyson a visit the next time he is in The USA. I am sure Mike can tell Manny a story or two about these "Fair-Weather Friends" and the hurt they can cause both emotionally and financially.

How true! But I'm sure Pac can get his act together, his house cleaned up and bounce back soon!

i hope he does what erik did for their last fight... ditch the excess baggage and retain the only people that you really need for training... ditch justin fortune, he overworked manny... ditch murad, for obvious reasons... buboy, lenny and freddie should be the only one's there...

You know, I just read (was it Pedro Fernandez or Ringtalk?) that Pac's entourage grew from that of a small mob to the size of Ben-Hur's movie cast!!! Not literal of course, but Pac should get the drift. Yeah, he should do an Erik the next time: train with as lean a team as possible, somewhere up in the mountain of Mt. Apo in Mindanao for the most mimimum of distraction!
