Erik Morales Thinks He's BETTER Then Pac...

[#1Assassin]

i just watched raheem-morales like 2sec ago.

atleast morales stepped up and took on a technical boxer, i have more respect for a fighter who fights anyone and takes a L or two than a ducker who cherrypicks his oponents.

for that reason morales will always be better than pac, head to head pacs got his number though. morales would have no chance if they fought again at 147, he might end up seriously hurt.

I cant believe Morales said that crap. He has never been better than Pac. He was only better than Pac on one night. Pac of course wasnt as good as the Pac is now.
But although Morales is an ATG i dont think he was even better than Manny when he beat him. Just had a good night, and Pacman was off.

[cortdawg25]

he's right. he is a better technical fighter than Pacquiao.

Cutting off the quote doesn't do what he said justice. Reading the interview I agree with Morales when he said "technically he was better than Manny" IMO that was true right now no its not true but back then it was.

Prime for prime Erik is a better technical fighter.

So he's right.

correct

Now Erik is one of my favorite fighters but I think he was punch drunk when he said this

I believe he is just promoting his comeback but I do believe that Roach didn't want to let Morales weigh in at 132. He knew Morales was having trouble weighing in at 130 already.

got lucky for the whole fight ? mother****er youre an idiot. i understand when people say a lucky punch but that was a whole fight. morales won that and it wasnt luck

He sure couldn't redo it could he you ****** piece of turd? Like a fighter cant have a off night! STFU you ****** ****face!

He got lucky one night and beat down two attempts after that!! Great fighter though. But better than Pac...NOT!

You are probably the worst ******* on this site with Barracuda.

God lucky? EM was already past his prime and shot in the first fight. He put on a boxing clinic against Pac. Pac got his ass handed to him by a past prime EM. EM even gave Pac a chance to knock him out in the 12 round and he couldn't do it.

EM came off a horrible lost, was past his prime, and shot in the 2nd and 3rd fights. The man looked like a raisin in the 2nd and 3rd fights. He was also in a lot of wars before his fights with Pac.

erik IS better than pac...

until that time they had their 2nd fight. erik's mistake was not to go up the higher weight in a point of time as pac did 2years ago.

I remember after twelve rounds is Manny Pacquiao crying—and crying and crying and crying because he knew about the beating he had just taken and he knew at that time there was somebody technically better than him. He had to find some way to be at an advantage to try and control me. That’s the way history was written, but here I am—brand new

lol, I've seen Erik bring that up in a couple other recent interviews too..... and him and Manny are supposed to be friends
