I say that the "cut eye excuse" is bull**** because I've seen fighters win fights with two broken hands (PBF and Malignaggi have done it), both eyes swollen shut (think Ebo Elder vs. Courtney Burton), extreme broken noses, and cuts that required stitches afterwards (anyone remember the co-main event where Husein opened that huge cut on the bridge of Arce's nose?) Great fighters overcome their problems in the ring and don't make excuses about it afterwards.

Originally posted by bigdlb12kinda like the hurt foot in the marquez fight,which did not allow manny to move as much as he could of but of course wasnt able to KO marquez after knocking him down 3 times in the 1st and the gloves issuse,cut on his eye and 130 lbs not being his natural weight for the Morales fight?
Man, and you guys claim to be boxing fans. But you don't wanna see a Pacquiao/Morales rematch.

Originally posted by SnoopySmurfSo...a rematch with Morales would not be exciting to you guys? It's about as pointless as a Morales/Barrera 4, right? Barrera owns Morales anyway so why bother? Right?

Originally posted by StickmanI think everyone would enjoy a rematch, but expecting a fighter to not step up in weight so a rematch with a fairly assured outcome could take place? I don't think so. If the fight were so close that a clear winner was impossible to choose I could see the point, but as things stand, Manny was beaten fairly, decisively, and doesn't deserve a rematch based on the possibility of him correcting a bad loss, an unfair decision, or an uncertain outcome. Any rematch that took place would be for money and viewer entertainment only, because of the unliklihood of a victory for Manny.
What is it? It seems that only Morales, Barrera, and Marquez get the benifit of the doubt with the Mexican nuthuggers.Last edited by Alibata; 04-07-2005, 11:48 AM.

Originally posted by SnoopySmurfYou don't know about their excuses coz there's no media attention on them like Barrera and Pacquiao.
What did Wayne Braithwaite say after his fight? Did he make excuses? Nope, he just said that he wasn't the better man in the ring that day and that he'd be back. What did Tito say after Hopkins KO'd him? He said that Hopkins was a great fighter, that he took nothing away from him at all, and that he accepted his loss but would be back. No excuses there. But it seems like every time Pac fights and doesn't do well he has an excuse. He is a whiner, period.

Really, the only ones who wnt to see em fiht again is Pac's supporters. He got beaten and though not terribly, crying for a rematch is akin to every guy Morales has beaten without KO'ing em claiming they all should get re-matches. Anything can happen in a fight but by the same token it's true whether it includes Pacquiao or not.
Having said that, Morales is fast approaching(or leaving) the heaviest he can be successful at and I think he may well get KTFO at a higher fighting weight.
He ain't all that impressive at 130!
